Jump to a rule from the events

Open BobSquarePants opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

From the Event view, I think it will be awesome if could right click on one entry and jump directly to the corresponding rule. Cheers.

Did you try double clicking? :) or do you mean besides double-clicking, use right click to jump?

Blue circle = Right click Yellow circle = left click

aah I see, you have to click on the column you want to inspect, on the Events view: Node, Process and Rule

Indeed, it work. I didn't know they where clickable by column, I don't know how you can point it without making the GUI ugly :)

Maybe if someone double click on any other column, that only : Node, Process and Rule are clickable ?

I don't know how you can point it without making the GUI ugly :)

That's the million dollar question I think. In previous versions there was a small message suggesting that you could click on the rows to open a detailed view.

For v1.5.0 I added a help button with quick help. Historically other applications (*nix, mac, win) used to display a welcome dialog with hints, like "Did you know..." and [x] don't show this dialog again.

We'll keep improving it with all your feedback!

I think if a stupid (like me :) ) double click on a not clickable column, then a small hint/tooltip should appear ? specifying which one are..

, then a small hint/tooltip should appear ?

Yes, I think it's doable :+1:

Can't you just make all columns clickable? That would be more intuitive. Or you add a context menu, which can be opened with a right-click. There you add entries like "Go to rule". And maybe soon other people have suggestions for more entries.

All columns are clickable now, and there's a help button that explains the behaviour.
