Hi Khushboo,I have a couple of opinions -- Can we place "Name" in the first position and then "Key" at the second?
Basically the key is going to be the non-editable field (unique key) and the user can not change it. Users can only change name and SQL, so the key is in first place.
- I think 'delete' icon suites more than 'clear icon'
We use the delete icon to completely delete the row from the grid but here we are not going to delete the row, only clearing the name and SQL fields for the selected row. So, the macro details against that key will be removed from the database but the key remains in the database.
- Can we have the dropdown menu as below? As you can see user can select the "entered query from the query editor" then directly press "New Macro" which saves the user time and energy too. Please correct me if this is not something logical working one.
Sure, we can have a drop down menu as you suggested but not sure about the selecting the entered query and can use that directly in the New Macro dialog as we will have a list of macros.
Thanks,
Khushboo
