I might be a little fuzzy-brained today, but it just took me several minutes to figure out how to attach new try jobs from a review in Phabricator. The docs here reassure me that "attaching new jobs to the run is easy" but they don't actually describe what to click on in order to make it so. I missed that I had to click the little down-arrow to reveal the action menu, and spent way too long staring at the page looking for the "add new jobs" item from the screenshot.

A friendly suggestion: please consider adding a short textual description like "click on the down-arrow to access the actions menu", and/or highlighting the down-arrow in the screenshot to make it clearer where to click.

Thank you for these docs! It might have taken me longer that it should to figure this out, but I would have had exactly zero chance of discovering it without them.

Moving to a better component. I updated the doc but maybe the frontend could be improved? Using an hamburger menu as it is the standard these days for menus.
Ryan, would have it made your life easier?

Thank you!

It's hard to say to be honest; probably I would have recognized the icon for what it is a little faster if it were the hamburger icon.
