1059279 - Icon used for the "additional links" menu (eg mcMerge, cancel all builds) isn't clear

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tree Management :: Treeherder, defect, P3)

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

I've been asked about this one several times on IRC - people can't find the "cancel all builds" button.

I think we should make the current button more obviously a "more options" type menu - ie just a triangle (or the three dots thing from mobile UIs) rather than the current mixture of triange/up-arrow/square thing.

http://glyphicons.com/ -> icon "more" looks like a possible candidate?

Comment 2

[William Lachance (:wlach)]

I'm not really sure if the more icon is any more obvious.

Another alternative would be to just break out "Cancel all builds" into its own button, since it's really the only one that most people would want to use.

I did some of this already including the "cancel all" button breakout per comment#2 using glyphicon-minus-sign, which is a nice variant stop-button. And keeping just the down chevron with no icon for the existing menu. It looks pretty nice. Assigning myself.
