Conversation excerpt

U03B4RTC04D: Dagster Cloud:

For sensors I would prefer a combination of the old UI and new

1. click to see details (list of runs)
2. surface # requested at the top of that list
   UM49TQ8EB: Hi! For Separate Pandas Dataframe Solid into Two Sources #1, are you looking to see a list of the ticks runs? Do you get a dialog when you click on the “63 Requested” tag?
   U03B4RTC04D: here’s my current view, not as useful for looking back at historical ticks
   U03B4RTC04D: my sensor spawns 50-100 every 5 minutes, so I have to keep clicking the back button in the new UI
   U03B4RTC04D: For Separate Pandas Dataframe Solid into Two Sources #1 I mean more on the timeline UI — I’d love to be able to see historical sensor batches easily

same way you could zoom in and out on the timeline and scroll to the left / right easily (in the old UI)
U03B4RTC04D: I think probably if you just brought back the old timeline UI modal with the navigation I’d be happy!
UM49TQ8EB: I see… so mostly navigation is harder with the list view.
U03B4RTC04D: yep!
U03B4RTC04D: can keep the list view as-is because it’s still useful for recent history
U03B4RTC04D: but I wish I had the old timeline UI in addition to that list view
UM49TQ8EB: <@U018K0G2Y85> issue navigating historical ticks is cumbersome for sensors
