| Summary | 0019360: Improved Settings UI for deletion from the device | ||||
| Description | The current UI for deletion shows the various options as a combo-box. While this is space efficient, there are two downsides: 1) The alternative options aren't immediately visible (minor) 2) The only way to see the contextual help of the alternative options is to select the alternative (major, since the labels aren't totally clear without the contextual help). The UI proposed below improves usability/understandability of this functionality and makes it analogous to the MMW UI. Delete from the device Delete other files and playlists . . . . . . . . . . . o-- Note: in the above case, all other options are greyed out. If the option is enabled, then the following appears: Delete from the device Delete other files and playlists . . . . . . . . . . . --o Unselected server files / All unselected files . . . . v Delete files that are on the / Delete all files that server but not the sync list / aren't on the sync list Show confirmation dialog . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . --o Note: If non-trivial, this can be pushed. | ||||

This bug isn't about the text (which as you wrote, is already updated). It's about: 1) Adding a toggle to enable the functionality, so that there's a clear description of the functionality (vs 'None'), and so that the layout is more similar to MMW 2) The fact that when the user enables the toggle, a full description of the default setting of 'Unselected server files' appears, which again makes the functionality much clearer to the user than the current 'Unselected server files'. I think that this will make things a lot clearer for most users, but push if it's non-trivial. |

An alternative (but less preferable) approach would be to retain the current UI and just add contextual help for 'none': Don't delete any files from the device, even if they're not on the sync list. |
