Once more small oddity.  This may be by design...I'm not sure.

 

If delete a VM + Disk(s), it appears that nothing happens.  However, before I did anything else I checked my VM storage location and confirmed that the disk image was indeed deleted.  I had to refresh (F5) the VM page for the changes to be displayed.  Should it auto-refresh?

 

Can someone else test?

Apparently that is a new Tool under 'Tools' called 'Diagnostics'.  It will collect all manner information on your system including syslog, smart reports, Shares information, array information and most of the configurations files zipped up into one containing file.  It should be a really great help in getting the information necessary to help people with issues. 

 

(I got it a few weeks as part of a testing group and I saw today where someone had included it in a post.  I queried about it and he said he just found it and thought it "Great improvement of RC4 ".)

I thought this very minor reporting issue was mentioned in earlier betas but I still see it in RC4.

 

Max/Installed memory seems buggered...

Also, should the system information report on the total # of physical CPUs (I have two)?

Can you telnet into your system and post the outcome of these commands.

Good to hear, this is useful :)

(3)  The Help button is nice; but it'd be nice if it "reset" to a cleared state when you switched tabs.  I was on the Dashboard and clicked Help to see what it would do ... answer is nothing.  Then clicked it again and it still did nothing.  Then clicked it a 3rd time and finally decided it really didn't do anything.  Clicked to a different page and Voila!!  There was help text displayed.    A few seconds of experimenting and it's obvious that the button simply turns it on/off and if it's on then you'll see the help on any tab that has help.    I think it would be more intuitive if, when you were on a tab and needed help, you simply clicked Help.  You could then turn it off (as now) by clicking it again ... or you could just go to another tab and it would automatically be turned off.

 

I don't mind the way it works right now, but the help button would make more sense as a toggle like the "Advanced/Basic" view toggle on the docker tab.

 

It is a toggle the way it's working.    What's not intuitive about it is that if you toggle it on while viewing a tab that has no help, nothing changes (except the "Help" button is visually slightly depressed).  It's clearly not a big deal ... but I think it'd be more intuitive if it reset whenever you changed tabs.  I suppose a "Default Help State" setting could control whether that "reset" was to an on or off state  :)

 

Gary, I think your view of it was skewed by the fact you started using it on one of the only pages with no help yet.  Yes, it's non-standard, from a Windows users' point of view, but it actually works much better this way, and never *feels* wrong.  Once you use it while browsing the myriad of Settings and other pages, you'll appreciate not having to toggle it back on over and over and over.

 

I wonder if what xamindar meant was a slide toggle, as is used in a number of other places for Off and On.  It clearly shows what the current state is.

So this is built-in now? Should we uninstall the plugin for it we were testing?

What is going here.  This is what my "info" popup looks like (notice the "More" button):

On behalf of all those who help and support others, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

 

Now if you could add automated analysis, troubleshooting, and fix-it tools ...    :)

The More button is added when you have the optional Dynamix System Information plugin installed, clicking on it brings you to that tool.

Yes I think I noticed this on a previous release so I don't think it is new with RC4

 

Just a little nuance ... previously the Close button was replaced by More, now there are two buttons.

Yes, I am looking forward to just telling the user to click on this. Maybe we could refer to it in this sticky which I already have linked in my sig.

 

So, what about the diagnostic utility plugin we were testing? Should we uninstall it now?

Yes, the plugin is superseded and should be uninstalled (you will need to reboot to get the built-in function though) - sorry it wasn't mentioned.

As I noted later, it really doesn't matter.  I'd prefer it not stay on across tabs ... when I want help, I want it contextually -- I don't want every bit of help in the entire system to be displayed.  With good tool-tips on the icons (it's getting there) it'll be very rare that I'll use the help feature anyway.    It would be nice if the on/off state was more evident (the icon changes slightly -- a very small depressed look -- but it'd be nice if it was more apparent.    Personally (as I noted in my post) I'd much prefer it simply reset itself to Off when you changed tabs.  [Perhaps yet-another global setting "Keep help state when changing tabs"  :) ]
