Graphene GUI testing and feedback

On OpenLedger each time I click a link to go to one of the markets I get redirected here https://bitshares.openledger.info/#/create-account

It's really, really frustrating. I just want to go straight to the market page I click on. The way it is I have to search it manually.

On the order book, what about creating a table, with lines separating each field to make it more easy to read? Plus each row should have a different colour (darker/lighter/darker/lighter) to make it easier to read.

Also when I'm on a market and I want to move to another market by using the "My Markets" / "All Markets" option on the side, when I type in the market I want and click on it, I can't move to that market. I get the "Loading" Icon and that's it.

Can we have some tool that calculates the average cost of an asset according to our transaction history? Should this be done via worker proposal?

[Akado]

On the markets:

When we have the table view, the volume is displayed in BTS, can we have an option to display it in USD, CNY and BTC? And also add the total trading volume on top or something. It's nice to know, people can check it more easily and also for cmc to fetch volumes more easily maybe?

Also when you switch to card view, the cards have no info on the volume, even if they're showing it on the table view (ie BTS:OPENBTC)

During asset creation we should add the following:

Is backed asset: Yes/No
Backed asset proof of existence: (add an address of the real asset proving it's actually there)

Example:
OPENBTC should be a backed asset with an address with the same amount of bitcoins as the available supply of OPENBTCs and have the owner sign a message so we know it's really him.

I can see my bids on the price chart and order book, but don't see my asks. 

Could it be that there is a limit of items that can be shown in the order book and once it reaches a limit you can't see the orders on the book nor on the price chart?  Makes the price chart deceptive since it doesn't display asks above a certain amount of TEST when in fact there are.

Few things on the testnet I noticed:  http://testnet.bitshares.eu/#/market/TEST_PEG.FAKEUSD

1) Order doesn't execute.  I see an ask at .00369 PEG.FAKEUSD/TEST and try to buy it and place a matching order, but it doesn't execute. 

2) I used to have 'Cancel' buttons on all my orders, but those no longer show in the order book.  It also may be good to indicate which orders are the users somehow.. (ie. hightlight, stars, different color etc)

3) In  the orders page the link up top doesn't reverse the pricing of the pair ..(ie USD/BTS should switch to BTS/USD) ...instead it links to the price chart.

Thanks.  Trading platform looks and works great overall!

1) I think you might need to place an order a bit above it to execute. This has happened to me in the past already, don't know if it's fixed in the most recent release but we need that fixed asap or people just won't use it.
I use the light client btw, dunno if it's working correctly on OpenLedger

Yeah I'm using the testnet so it should be a pretty recent codebase similar to OL.  I agree this really should be addressed asap if it hasn't already.

It's difficult to vote for witnesses. I think there could be a list of witnesses already voted in where the user could set order to show choosing witnesses with the smallest amount of missed blocks. I need to have a previous list compiled by me in order to add them. Plus when I go to the Explore/Witnesses menu to check the ones I want to, when I go back, the list of witnesses disappears making me start all over again. This means each time I add one I need to publish changes. Why can't I add all the ones I want first and then publish them?

Exactly same issue for committee members.

This goes in hand with Nielson's 6th Heuristic

Recognition rather than recall
Minimize the user's memory load by making objects, actions, and options visible. The user should not have to remember information from one part of the dialogue to another. Instructions for use of the system should be visible or easily retrievable whenever appropriate.

Yea totally agree, those pages need to be refactored.

Matching orders. When I try it, it rounds decimals I think and it doesn't let me match other orders, we always need to place the order a little bit above.

I think that's an important issue. No exchange can operate with that bug. It can frustrate other users / affect their user experience negatively

@svk @valzav are we going to be able to view markets in the webwallet without having an account? Then we can finally share links to BitShares markets and get altcoin traders interested.

As you know clicking on a market here https://bitshares.openledger.info/#/explorer/markets without an account takes you to the register page, which is dumb. It means that viral growth for BitShares is impossible.

True it's possible. The real question is when will we have it.

1) On the trade page "My orders" at the bottom of the page are difficult to get to because of the secondary scrolling of the bid and ask orders in horizontal view.  I'd recommend the area between the bids and asks with the button that flips sides, that this area not scroll.  It is currently very difficult to find a place to put the mouse where I can scroll to the bottom of the page without scrolling through the entire bid/ask orderbook.

I am on Chrome

If I click a price in the order book, can the amount clicked on be entered into both of the above entry areas for buy and sell, currently it only does one of them. The reason I would want this is say I am wanting to sell something for slightly less than the lowest current ask,  if I click on the current lowest ask it adds the price to the buy field, if it added it to the ask input field I would then be able to change the price without having to worry as much that I might have missed the decimal place or a 0 or something  which would result in the ask being off by a big amount.

It would be great if there was a spot where I could see a list of all of my current orders. I see this somewhat in the Recent Activity area, but that includes more than just active orders... if this can't be done, it would at least be nice to click in an entry on the Recent Activity feed after it says the order info so that you are taken to that particular market.

On the hosted wallet it works but on the light client I can't scroll down to see more bids at the bottom. For example I would like to see the Total up to 1M BTS on the OBITS:BTS market and I can't. Also the scroll bar is messed up.
