How to group "confirm pop-up" or "question windows" together on the new OMV 6 gui ?

  • Hi,


    2 questions about new OMV 6 web ui:


    with the new OMV 6 web ui, all the buttons to accept or cancel operation are so far apart in full HD screen, and more in 4K.

    there is a lot of cases all users have seen like me.


    so... is it possible to group them, to not have to go from the right to the left of the screen, just to accept a click ? very boring. But i ve seen on some videos, there are not so far. So how to do this ? cms ?


    another question: update managment/updates => how to select 2 or 3 among all proposed updates ? because yellow lines seems to indicate the selection, only one, not a few, and all the proposed updates are in progress, even if i select one.


    thanks :)

  • All available updates are performed regardless how many you select.

    A backup strategy is worthless unless you have a verified to work by testing restore strategy.

    nope

    Yes they are. The checkbox is only for the changelog. Notice how there are no package names added to the upgrade command - https://github.com/openmediava…/engined/rpc/apt.inc#L215

    omv 8.0.10-2 synchrony | 6.17 proxmox kernel

  • it s not working as you said, i have 7 OMV6, and all are set as identical. I can not select what i want, and if i select only one upadate line, all are performed.

    and it is like that since the 1st OMV6 i install

  • You are not understanding what you have been told. Selecting any number of updates - one, more than one, or none has no effect. All updates are performed, period.


    Selection is only for viewing the changelogs.

  • ok. i understand that selecting (or not) updates is not working to update what i/we want. OMV updates all. Just for changelog. to do what ? for who ? go to diagnostics to see that. changelog has to be to the "log" session.

    It is different than previous versions. This is not limpid on the interface. i ll go to ssh to do all the updates in one click, with "apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade". but in the web gui, you can see "0 selected/0 total" if 0, and 1/4, for instance, and then click the update button. So... nice ? no. confusing message/sentence. that's it.

    In that way, a lot of warning or error messages appear, sometimes with "accept modification", sometimes not, sometimes red message in the bottom, sometimes, in the top.

    So, for me, this is a regression. that 's it. but i can go back to OMV5.

    i just start one of my nas, with OMV6, and as expected on it, there is a new update. 0 selected, 1 total, click to install updates... omv 6 performs the update. lol. yeah i know, changelog. but it is not the purpose of updates selection. for instance, OMVextra, Aaron knows it as well, i can choose what plugin i want. For updates, i should choose what i want, no ?


    it is not my first message on this topic, you just answer to the smallest. You can choose what you want, of course, to help me. but that's not help me.

    i have to travel with my mouse on my screen on each action, from left, from right, on the top right... etc. It 's very boring. And i don't understand what is the idea of that. maybe i need to install touchscreen to do that faster ^^

    see 10'47, the man clicks everywhere on the screen to accept updates. and on big screen, this is awful.



    to be honest, ergonomics, intuitiveness, it's a job. And this version, for me, doesn't take the right way to propose that.

    Of course, if i don't like it, i can quit. i know. i said just that it is not a good thing.

  • hi,


    i went back to omv5 on one of my servers, just to be sure. updates managment section proposes to select one or more items to install.

    in omv 6, in this section, it is for changelog, with similar informations and buttons (selected, total, update).


    in omv6, full hd resolution, 80% zoom, login popup in english is very concentrated, admin/pwd/cancel/ok.

    but in different sections, in webui, to accept modifications, cancel/ok, confirm button, "are you sure? button", they are all far to the others in layout. That is the point i wrote in 1st message, that's all.


    if i haven't upgraded all my servers omv 5 to 6, last months with a lot of small issues, i was forced to reinstall omv6 from scratch, and a lot of updates and a lot of mini experiences of this new webui.

    you can understand what i mean or not, because of my wrong written english.

    yesterday started new omv5 system, older webui than omv6 webui, but more explicite.


    all omv engine is good for me, stable, rich, fast.
