Job stream view enhancements

Overview of job stream view

The latest enhancements to the job stream view prioritize user control, visual feedback, and operational efficiency. The updated interface provides a more stable and responsive environment for managing complex workloads.

• View stability

  • Layout locking: Freezes node coordinates to facilitate navigation and panning without causing disorienting layout shifts.

• Operational efficiency

  • Multi-selection mode: Toggles between single navigation and bulk selection modes. Selected items display with high-contrast highlighting for improved visibility at any zoom level. Users can perform simultaneous actions on multiple jobs with a confirmation summary of the operation status.

• User feedback

  • Visual loading state: Displays a distinct loading indicator during data-intensive processing. This visual confirmation alerts users that background calculations are active, reducing uncertainty during layout updates.

• View export accuracy

  • SVG export functionality: Generates scalable vector graphics that accurately reflect the current on-screen layout, operational status, and node positions.

Benefits of job stream view enhancements

These enhancements streamline daily operations and improve the usability of the graphical interface:

1. Bulk processing: Users can perform actions on multiple jobs simultaneously within the job stream view, removing repetitive manual tasks. The system provides immediate confirmation upon completion of the bulk action.
2. Enhanced offline analysis: The improved SVG export supports extensive graphs containing hundreds of jobs. Text, icons, and dependencies remain fully readable in the exported file, facilitating offline review and documentation.
3. Navigation control: Layout locking prevents accidental displacement of items or cells during navigation. Users can explore the job stream structure freely without altering the defined visual arrangement.
