Hi Dennisluvm,

just to add my 5 cents to overall picture and suggest few improvements to 6.5 Web client:

  1. Self-Adjusting TREE view on left side is by all means counter-intuitive. I do not like tree branches and options disappearing and appearing by themselves. I like to have my selected structure intact on left, so I can easily switch from sub-items in a branch by my will - not to follow the will of some counter-intuitive logic of Web interface, which shows and hides items as I click them. So please, add an option to left tree menu to SHOW ALL sub-tree items, not just ones I clicked recently.
    Also "MORE XY" in navigation tree just wastes space. It has the same effect as clicking the main branch, so please, get rid of it.
  2. I do not know who suggested you DATASTORE BROWSER design, but the very right-hand sub-window (which shows clicked file ICON) is by my opinion useless. Or at least on the wrong place. Maybe you could put it into LOWER TRAY section of datastore browser? Doing so, I would have all longer filenames always visible in top 3 sub-windows:
    - STORE in first left-hand window
    - FOLDERS in 2nd window
    - and folder CONTENT / FILES in 3rd window
    I think we do not need 4th window in datastore browser.
  3. NETWORKING tab should show topology of all vSwitches. This was the main advantage of thick client in previous versions against Hyper-V, so please, add it again. Like it is showing topology when you click on each individual network vSwitch, the main NETWORKING tab should have overview of them all.

Thanx
