bbmap component sorting

Post by SDohmen »

For our central we use the bbmap component. My co-workers however asked if it was possible to have the hostgroup/servicegroup selections sorted in alphabetical order.

SDohmen,

Can you send us a screenshot, where hostgroup/servicegroup selection is NOT sorted in alphabetical order? I do have the bbmap component installed on my test box and my selections are all sorted alphabetically.

As you can see on the attached screenshot the menu listing isn't sorted. The same goes for the servicegroup menu.

I put this down as a feature request for this component.

Since for some reason i couldn't find the link to the feature request page i decided to put it here.

Is it possible to have the bbmap services names vertical aligned? That way you can save massive amounts of space sideways which can show more services without scrolling.

I hope this explains it.

Yeah that makes sense. There's not a "good" way to do this with CSS that works in all browsers, but it can be done in browsers later than IE8 and FF3.5

I agree completely, but you'd be surprised how often people are not ; )

True that.

While i am at it, co-workers had 2 more feature requests:

1. The lines in between the services and all in a light(er) grey color
2. the service bulbs aligned in the middle.
