Forum Topic - Memory Analysis UI Updates for IDE 4.7: (2 Items)
   
Memory Analysis UI Updates for IDE 4.7  
For those who using Memory Analysis tools we planning up some UI updates in next version
to simply and streamline user experience. I want to outline what we will be doing so people have a chance to comment on 
that:

- Currently memory analysis present all data in a "editor" with pages Allocations, Errors, Bins, Bands, Usage, Trace 
Details, Statistics and Settings.

- When you work with errors or allocations - if you click on any item it would open source editor, which hides MAT 
editor, so to look at next error you have to bring MAT editor back again which hides source editor.
To fix that we will use Views instead (similar to eclipse Problems view for compile errors). As a result allocation 
table and Errors tab of editor would be deleted. View would update on selection of session or activation of an editor.

- We will introduce proper sorting for all columns, grouping of items with aggregation and more filtering options. 
Because of grouping "Statistics" page become redundant. All that it shows now can be viewed by combination of using 
grouping and filtering. So we plan to remove it.

- We are planning to remove Trace Details page - it was a combination of charts that can be viewed from other pages


Let us know what you think.

All sounds promising! I especially like the idea to use a 'View' approach as you describe.
