Describe the bug
Here I'll compile all the usability / user experience improvement ideas, separated by sections.

Common

  • When you click on a main section, it would be better to open the first (default) or the last used view - now we need additional click.
  • There are labels that look clickable (they are even animated when clicked) but are not. For example in instance view, below the instance name.
  • When opening a dialog, the first element should be active (with the cursor ready for typing). This avoids extra clicks.
  • 'Clear search filter' button - now the way to clear it is to delete the text and click on the search icon.
  • Pagination - it's good to have buttons for the first and last pages, not only previous/next.
  • Pagination - text 'showing 11-21 items'.
  • Proper human readable volume/disk spaces - for example Physical Size 0.0002 GB is not the best, it could be 0.2 MB or even 200 kb. Another example - 0.3007 GB.
  • Some dialogs do not have 'Cancel' buttons - for example 'Assign Instance to Another Account'. The 'x' icon on the top right corner is always an option but I think we should be consistent here.
  • Probably a button 'expand/collapse all' in the grids might be helpful.
  • Created time should be in more human-readable format, not 2020-02-04T09:20:29+0000

Compute > Instances

  • It's better to have 'Take VM volume snapshot' and 'View host' icons even when the VM is not running - just make them grayed-out and non-clickable.
  • When clicking on an instance, in the breadcrumb you can see the instance ID, instead of its name.

Compute > Instances > Deployment wizard

  • No default selection is made/offered for "compute offering".
  • No default selection is made/offered for "network".

Compute > Instances > selected instance

  • CPU/Memory usage indicators are static, refreshed only on demand.
  • Settings - it would be nice to have syntax completion when adding new settings.

Compute > Instances > selected instance > network adapters

  • Missing tooltips for network adapters icons - make default NIC and delete NIC.
  • No way to distinguish Broadcast URI and Isolation URI in the new UI.
