Re: Is Ops Navigator slow for others too?

Hello Booth,

You can guess my opinion on OpsNav simply due to the fact that it ONLY runs on 
Windoze 
-- who from Rochester is up whom in Redmond and not paying!  It should be 
written in 
Java -- or are IBM finding the Java mantra easier to preach than follow?

However, you can significantly improve the behaviour of OpsNav by expanding the 
tree in 
the left-hand pane by clicking on the plus sign.  Don't click on the name, ONLY 
ON THE 
PLUS SIGN.  OpsNav will expand the tree without trying to populate the 
right-hand pane.  
When you have found the proper location then click on the name to fill the 
right-hand 
pane.

It does require reasonable motor skills and mouse control but at least 
Rochester thought 
about the issue.  I believe Windoze Explorer behaves in the same fashion.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
