We listened to your remarks and focused on major drawback of ProjeQtOr : the interface.
We redesigned the General User Interface to bring something more clear, with less icons, less buttons.
All icons won't be available at once, they will be displayed when needed.
Only most important feature are proposed at first glance, and you'll discover others steps by steps.
Main Ergonomics and interface changes |
||
| • | New interface, that can be activated or not (you can keep old interface if you like) | |
| • | New interface is more modern, lighter, with some fluent animations. | |
| • | New left menu, more accurate, with a search option to quickly find what you want | |
| • | Some buttons (for instance on list fields) appear when you need them, they are not always displayed. | |
| • | Instead of selecting a theme to change the color, you directly select 2 colors, a main one that will change colors for icons, main backgroud and texts, and a secondary one that will be used for highlights such as selected item. You can therefore adapt interface to your company branding colors. | |
| • | New icons set, with outline style, that changes color depending on selected colors | |
| • | On list and detail, only most important buttons are shown. Other buttons (print, export, copy,...) can be reached with specific "extra" button (with three vertical dots) | |
| • | Better layout for emails sent | |
New top menu |
||
| • | New interface porposes a completely redesigned top menu | |
| • | Only Favorite menus appear, and recently used menus can be shown | |
| • | You have 5 bars of Favorite menus, that you can access with mouse wheel or specific spinner button or right-click | |
| • | You can rearrange menus on the bars with drap & drop, to move menus between bars and reorder into a bar | |
| • | Menus can be shown as "simple text", "simple icon" or "icon and text" | |
| • | Top menu proposes a "add new item" button, to directly create most common items | |
| • | "Add new item" button can be configured to create new item in a pop-up or going to corresponding screen. Pop-up mode is very efficient to create new ticket from planning view, staying on the Gantt view. | |
New Left Menu |

| • | A menu item can appear on several branches of the organization of menus | |
| • | The display of organization is not any more a tree view but drawer-like view : you open a drawer to see what it contains | |
| • | A breadscrum allow to return to any level of menu organization | |
| • | On the left menu reports corresponding to the section subjet are directly accessible | |
| • | Left menu can show icons if desired (use right click to show/hide icons) | |
New left menu bottom part |
||
| • | On new interface, left menu gives access to several information sections, some existing, some new | |
| • | Parameters section (new) : this displays parameter items (list of values) corresponding to current screen | |
| • | Links (existing) : direct links, defined a "link" attachments on projets | |
| • | Documents (existing) : a directory-like view for documents access | |
| • | Message console (existing) : a short summary reminder of actions you did | |
| • | Notifications (existing - if module is activated) : notifications to display, organized on a tree like structure depending on origin of notification | |

| • | Filter button also gives acces to Advanced filters and stored filters | |
