There is one case we didn't think about, in the widgets tab, when there is a widget we show a placeholder with a blue button, we've changed it to this:

It also happens in the analysis view:

What do you think @CartoDB/design?

In the analyses tab right now we have a loading state, with this changes, what do we do in that case? @CartoDB/design

actually we also have errors, check every different state for the analyses list

Zero case:

Copy: Analysis allow you to build reproducible workflows for analyzing and explaining your data.

In the analysis view, the dropdown in the redesign is showing the nodeId and the layerName:

but currently we're also showing the nodeTitle in this case Sampling, what should we do in the new design?

Also, in the widgets tab:

we're always showing "source" and the layer name, no matter if the source it's an analysis or the dataset itself, for example. this is how it looks in the widgets:

And the color for the nodeTitle and the layerName are different in the layer list and the widget:

Should the nodeTitle be darker than the layerName?

Another thing is the button, it's in the top of the list, but when the new widget is added it appears at the bottom of the list, should we change it to be at the bottom? In the layer list, it's at the top, and the layer is added at the top, should the button be consistent with where the resource is added?

To the nodes styling questions, this is how they should always look:

  • Node is always darker
  • Node is either Source or the Analysis name (simplified)
  • An analysis node is always "XX + Flash icon + Analysis name + Layer name"
  • A source node is always "XX + "Source" + Dataset name"

analysis options
layers list
widgets

To the button question: We want it at the top, always. And to solve that, we want to change the behavior so they get added on top (both in the Widgets list and the widgets themselves), just like layers do, to unify.

Does that answer your doubts?

Yes, thank you!

Why did we change the blue color to the last one? 馃槥 I loved it 馃挃

I loved it too, but it's too similar to our Builder blue and people might confuse them and think that it is interactive :(

In production! 馃殌
