Adding User's groups as drop-down - feature request

[romainGuiet]

Dear @tlambert03 ,

I found a bit "confusing" to have a "flat" access to all the projects when connecting to the session. As the default omero behavior is to arrive in your "default" group, and to be able to move/jump to another group, I would suggest to have a drop-down menu to list all the groups individually (and maybe keep a All Groups option)

Something like :

• Default group
• Another group
• Yet another group
• Display all groups

Cheers,

Romain

@tlambert03 As this is a quite old issue I was wondering whether this is planned in the near future? If you point me to the right place, I can also try myself at a PR to implement this.

Hello,

I agree with Romain suggestion. It would be great to select the group we want to browse (and maye be also the user because with Read-Only or higer permission groups, we also have access to teammate's data). I found interesting the way that QuPath-OMERO extension implements OMERO data browsing. A similar implementation would be great.

Here is a screenshot of what the QuPath-OMERO brower looks like.

Hope it helps, Best,

Rémy.

Hi @tlambert03 ,

thank you so much for taking time for working on this !

I just tested the "projects" branch and when logginh for the first time I see all the projects from all members of my default group (see below)

but if I switch the "User" param or the "Group" param it's "updated" and now it shows only my projects

🥳

Yep, it's close ... some bugs I still need to iron out before I'm comfortable merging it
