UI Event list pagination - add a first page button (<<)

Open ptitdoc opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

  • There is often pagination bugs when changing filter while in the middle of event pagination or when changing the page size (100 instead of 500) when I'm not on the first page. UI shows incoherent page such as 503/0 instead of 501-1000/1053).

When changing the filter in the middle of a pagination, maybe it is better to bring the user to the first page again?

When changing the page size in the middle of a pagination, the user should however stay in the same event range. Computing the right page however in such case can be easily buggy.

  • More important than solving this bug, there should be a first page button (<<) to bring the user to the first page on demand. This would improve the user experience when he want to scroll back to first page quickly after changing the filter, and it would allow users to solve this class of bugs by himself.

Hi there, I've recently upgraded from an older version of Timesketch and noticed this issue too. In the older version, there were links for first/last page and also some interim page numbers (e.g. 1 2 3 125 250) as well as Previous/Next. It would be great if something similar could be implemented in a future release.

+1 to that, to both have the "First" and "Last" page there, and potentially the numbering, assigning this to Johan

This was the old UI. pagination is not so easy with very large number of events while it sounds easy to "jump to last page" it is not. I am moving this to the "future" milestone.
