I have a template node at the top of a dashboard tab, under it is a table node.
When you click on a table row, the contents of that selected row pop up in the template.
The problem is that the table node can often extend beyond the bottom of the screen height.
When you scroll down, the template node scrolls off the top of screen and so you are constantly scrolling down, clicking blindly, scrolling up to read the details, then scrolling back down to try and find where you were and clicking and scrolling madness ensures.
Since a picture is worth a 1000 words, here is how the screen looks when you first start....
When you scroll down, here is how it looks...
Two main questions.
-
Can I highlight the row I clicked on?
Its too easy to forget what row you last selected when you are scrolling up and down. -
Can I have the table scroll UNDER the template node at the top?
I have seen websites do this where their header / menu is always at the top of screen even as you scroll down. Very powerful and clean.
(Note, having the table scroll under the template would pretty much eliminate the need for the row highlight I suspect).
Thanks for your thoughts on the matter.
