[Bug 493797] Re: Why would the user want to open an existing review in "instant" mode?

 

@Holger: That's right! But I think we should capitalize the roles
because they are very important in this context. So we can write "Start
new instant review as single Reviewer".

@Daniel: Hmmm... our help system is not designed for "updating on
hover"; the Taurus team has choosen this approach. ;-) Alternatively we
can write only a word beside each icon and when you hover with the mouse
over it, replace it by an explanatory text. E.g. we can just write
"Instant Review" beside the first icon and when you hover with the mouse
over it, replace "Instant Review" with "Start new instant review as
single Reviewer" at the same position but with a smaller font size.

What do you think about this approach?

Bug description:
After choosing "instant review" on the startup screen (RevAger assistant), the user is offered the option to open an existing Review. But why? If there is already a saved review, this should be rather covered by the "scribe" mode already. Or is there something special about opening previous instant reviews?

Actually I think that both options offered there - the catalog manager and the "open review" function - should be part of the first screen, since they are not really mode-specific. Of course, putting all that those options in the startup screen would make it a bit too cluttered up, since we would have:

- Moderator mode
- Scribe mode
- Instant mode
- Language selection
- Catalog manager
- Open review

Maybe it would be worth considering a re-design of the first screen, i.e. offering only:

- Start new review
- Open existing review
- Open Catalog manager
- Select language

Choosing the first option would allow the user to specify the mode in the following wizard step.
