Shorten context menu of nodes

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Currently the context menu of a node is quite long, a shorter menu should be easier to use. node_context_menu

Describe the solution you'd like I suggest to move some functionality into other options, mainly Configure, and then remove these redundant options.

  • Change hostname - can already changed in the Configure menu
  • Change symbol - can be added to Configure
  • Show in file manager - might get moved into Show node information
  • Edit config - can be moved into Configure, for Docker nodes that's already implemented.

Another option would be to cascade the menu, that's how I added a tools menu. node_cascading_context_menu

When you select a dynamips router plus an interface label you can get an impressive context menu with 26 items full_context_menu
