Bert Freudenberg updated SQ-358:
--------------------------------

    Component: showcase

There are two separate issues here.

I'm with Tim on the UI problem. If I click an item and nothing happens it's a bad user experience. Clicking the directory title should reveal both the files and subdirectories. This has bothered me for a long time in Squeak.

The other issue is that the hierarchy is unnecessarily deep. I'm with Yoshiki, too, in that we should not have the user have to navigate through these deep hierarchies. Mostly that's a server issue and does not have to be addressed right now.  In any case it is a separate issue: SQ-359

> Would it be possible to expand the dirs underneath Squeakland Showcase when you click it
> I'm worried people won't know to click the triangle
> (I've seen a few people get confused)
> It's also somewhat expected, i think . . . to either unfold what you click, or see a list of subdirs on the right
> See some action besides nothing
> understand, i know people will learn the triangle
> it's just when you first log in, it might not be clear to look for subdirs
> especially since many directories have a triangle with no subdirs
> people tend to tune it out if it doesn't do anything the first few times
> unless there's a prompt
