    Summary

    In a book, when I click to select and focus a widget (object), it shows a thick black border with padding around the widget, with a button to maximise/resize the widget (known as resizeEdge), which overlaps over other widgets.

    Description

    In the new experience PAW, when I select any widget on a book (a cube view, a text, a button, an image, a shape, ), in view mode and in edit mode, I see a thick black box surrounding widgets with a large padding, which scrambles our UX design and jeopardise the user experience a lot.

    Versions

    This issue has been tested using PAW version 2.0.64, and TM1 server version 2.0.9.9.

    Expected behaviour

    This thick black box must be an optional feature, in other words, it could be disabled completely in a PAW server, in all books, at once. For example, navigating to Administration > Features, or by an environmental parameter in paw.env configuration file.

    Nonetheless, when the feature is enabled, it must be optional for each widget, by the means of a switch ON/OFF in the widget’s properties. It must be disabled by default.

    Requirements to replicate

    This issue can be replicated in any TM1 database, in any book, in any page, with any widget, at any mode (edit or view), by any user.

    Steps to replicate

    1. Logon to PAW new experience

    2. Open any book, new or existing.

    3. Click in each object, for instance, a cube view, a chart, a text box, a button, an image or a shape, to see the new thick black box with padding surrounding each widget

    4. Notice how it overlap other widgets and makes the design and user experience very confusing
