UX creating an entity using event listiners (Place cursor in text box and allow Enter to create)

Currently the workflow is as following:

  • Move mouse to “create entity”

  • Pop up shows, the User starts typing, nothing happens.

  • Grab the mouse and click in the text field.

  • Move hands back to the keybouard to type the name and presses enter to create, nothing happens.

  • Grabs the mouse again to press the create button.

The happy flow I suggest is:

  • Mouse (or shortcut) to create entity
  • Cursor is placed in the TextField, so i can type directly.
  • I press enter, entity has been created.

This is way faster, cleaner and helps a lot of beginner users to create their first entity.

Great suggestion Johan, I will pass this on to our FE team to see how we can address this.
