Hi,
to get more feedback on the UI, I will try to make some more suggestions
how to improve the Rails 2.0 UI.
Those who tried the 2.0 beta already know that the buttons Confirm/Skip
have been move to the top of the upgrade panel and are always visible
(green circle in the attached image).
First reason for that was to avoid scrolling down the upgrade panel to
finalize the tile lay.
I realized that now one has to use the buttons at the top of the upgrade
panel for tile/token laying, but the buttons at the bottom of the OR
window for later actions (payout, buy trains etc).
My suggestion is to make UI easier is:
A) Remove the button panel at the bottom of the OR window.
B) Move the undo/redo buttons to the bottom of the upgrade panel (always
visible)
C) Move the action buttons (payout/withhold/buy train) to the top of the
upgrade panel. This implies that the action buttons will change
depending on the activity.
Open question is where to move "Buy Private". One possibility is to move
the buy Private button to a entry of the special menu? Or a separate
entry of the menu? Other ideas?
Feedback and other/further ideas are welcome.
Stefan
