New user: show fee details in IBC transfer dialog

Open jonator opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

It may not be obvious to a user that the "Available balance", if sent exactly, would actually fail because none was set aside for fees (the "max" button accounts for this). We should display this concept in the UI somehow.

Just when depositing IBC. Should add UI next to available showing swap fee amount to reduce confusion on amount difference.

"Gas fees" correct @jonator? Should I mention that this is due to the originating chain so users know it's not an Osmosis fee?

@victortokaito yes may be worth conveying that somehow via design. However, I think that distinction doesn't have to be made if our goal is to abstract the specific chain in question away from the user. All they really need to know is that there is a fee.

Longer term, we want it to feel like users can easily interact with assets no matter the chain. Yeah, it’s a small point of UX, but I’d like to emphasize to users that the gas fee is akash’s since osmosis’ gas is variable.

Related issue: For clarity, I think implementing the user-selected gas fee UI makes sense since we can’t show this as part of the estimate (the osmosis gas fee is only shown after the fact—selection in Keplr). It can be kind of confusing that gas is not included in the transaction summary. #377

@victortokaito thinking of closing this issue. I don't think it's that valuable for users - or - not worth the UI complexity.

@jonator do you think the new fee detail section adequately addresses this?
