Refresh

New feature: the refresh server button in the left hand side of the toolbar was turned into a more advanced widget providing better interaction to with and more details of the refresh process of the selected server. The new interface comprises of the following components (from left to right):

  • refresh button
  • label with the server name
  • progress bar showing the countdown to the next automatic refresh. It also displays the total length of the current refresh period., and the current length of the drift if it is active for this server
  • label showing the time (in local time) of the last server refresh (hidden by default in automatic refresh mode)

The properties of this widget  (e.g. the visibility of the last refresh time) can be controlled from the dialogue in  Tools → Preferences → Appearance → Toolbar

 

 

 

Context menu

New feature: a menu mode was added to control what which commands are actually shown in the node context menu. The menu mode has these three categories:

  • User (default)
  • Operator
  • Administrator

The User mode allows most operations, but for safety prevents certain actions on suites and servers.

The Operator and Administrator modes allow suites to be begun, nodes to be removed and servers to be unlocked. Administrator mode additionally enables the Force and Order menus.

The current menu mode is displayed in the window title bar of ecFlowUI.

To change the menu mode use: Tools → Preferences → Menus → Toolbar                 

 

Suite filter

New feature: the Filter only this suite action was added to the Special menu of the node context menu in the Tree view. With this action we can quickly redefine This action automatically redefines the suite filter on the current server to filter only the suite of the selected node. To view other suites again, edit the suite filter.
