Optimized Load/Save Buttons Usability

Midihub Feature Requests

I posted this topic already in Juni 20. I ask you to color the Load/Save buttons with different colors to see the difference.

I suggested you to think about a better usability of the Save/Load Buttons.

Now I had the following idea:

LOAD: GREEN
SAVE: RED

Is that possible?

Hey, first I’d like to understand the usability issue better. :slight_smile:

  • Do you want to have ‘quick access’ to save/load particular preset?
  • Do you unintentionally happen to save to the wrong preset? (We might want to add a confirmation message, in case it’s not the ‘current preset’)
  • It’s unclear whether the popup menu when using the toolbar buttons is for save or load action?
  • Anything else?

    yes

Yes that happens really often

  • It’s unclear whether the popup menu when using the toolbar buttons is for save or load action?
    yes the usability is accidentally causing missuse

  • Anything else?
    The problem arises from the positioning of the buttons for loading and saving. They are right next to each other, which in itself … is unwise, but then they are also the same color that just has to go wrong
