Announcements area improvements
The Announcements area needs improvement:
- Limit announcement description to the subject line.
Currently the announcement area displays the subject line and a long run-on of the first part of the description before it cuts off. (see attached screenshot). The only thing I see needed in the Announcement list area is the announcement title. Beyond that, the hover preview will take care of providing additional detail should the user need to view it.
- Create hover preview of announcement without having to drill into it.
See attached screenshot. Looking for a borderless hover preview like the requests preview but with a nicer layout and retained formatting. The request preview should also be retaining some of the formatting but that's another issue.
- Retain formatting in announcement detail.
Currently all formatting is stripped.
Correction: Bulleted items formatting is the only thing being stripped. (see attached screenshot)
- Improve visuals of annoucement area. Attention should be drawn to this area for requesters for important issues such as server outages, etc..
- Add comment thread to announcement area for requesters to provide notes or feedback regarding the announcement.
