[beginner][ui/ux] Priority display improvement suggestion

User story¶

In job overview, the priority display looks a bit lonely and without context. In addition, the Plus and Minus Buttons should probably not be displayed, if the user is not logged in.

Especially for newcomers it would be helpful to underline in the priority line, that a lower value means a higher priority. Since the line is mostly empty, it should not hurt to add a small note there.

e.g.

Priority: |-| 30 |+| Default: 50, (?) [jobs with lower values are scheduled ealier]

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: It is clear to users how to discover and change the priority of a job
• AC2: Documentation is linked from a relevant place in the web UI
• AC3: +/- are only shown if the user is allowed that action

Suggestions¶

• Display the text "Priority: " so that this number is not left there without context
• Add a note describing that lower values have a higher priority than higher values e.g. a ? icon
• Don't display the |+| and |-| button, if the user is not logged in
• Remove existing pop-ups from the existing + and - buttons ?
• Improve the priority display line
• Prepare a mockup / screenshot and ask for feedback
