Action stage: Collapsed and searchable

[anne.van.duijvenvoorde]

When using an action stage currently all individual objects and processes are in an unfolded treeview. I'd like to request 2 new features / changes;

- Collapsed items in the treeview in stead of expanded.
- Search function which will only show objects that match the search term.

With Increase in the number of automated processes, it becomes very difficult to search for an object while working on a new process.

If Blueprism can provide a search feature in Action stage where developer can search for a required object that will really help in searching for the required object,.

also if we can show recently used objects in Action stage that will really help to speed up the development phase, since few action of an object needs to be utilized in a sequential manner to achieve target, like for Excel VBO we create instance, then create work book, then read/write from it.

We have more than 500 objects so i really understand the pain of not having this feature.

I have attached a possible design of to be Action stage.

Hi Anne,

Our internal teams have reviewed this idea and decided not to move it forward along the process, as we've already delivered the searchable aspects of the drop down list. As a result, I've updated the status of this idea to Not Planned.

If the you'd like to raise a new idea with just the “collapsed” aspect, the team can look at that feature independently and review.

 
Thank you,
Melanie
