 Description   

Only refresh automatically in IE8.0 In other (FF 3.6, Opera 10.6, Chrome 4.0, Safari 5.31) does not work.

I want to note that without reading the documentation to understand the interface that is that it is impossible!
http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/config/screens_and_slide_shows

It can be easily confused (that above privacy for me and has happened).
I have spent much time yet to understand that there is-that made it to the real problem - the difference in browsers.

It is suggested that like to do something like this:

Rename the "Update interval (in sec)" to the "Default update interval (in sec)"
Rename the "Delay" to the "Individual delay"

Tabular form and unify - the notion of "Delay" <-> "Default update interval". !!!!

Where ever it should be noted that the interval of less than 5 seconds will be counted as 5 seconds.

Also note the documentation
http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/about/what_s_new_1.8.3?do=show#improved_slideshow_refresh_rate_selector
I recommend to understand and unify the concepts, so that they conform to those used in the interface.

You like this?:
Refresh time multiplier <> refresh (what_s_new_1.8.3) <> Update interval <-> Delay

could you please expand on what the actual problem is ?
is something not refreshed as expected ?
(naming improvements would have to be left for later releases)

If the Screen has a resource with the type of Map, and this Screen is included in the Slide show, then when changing slides (scroll slides) resource Map is not refresh in almost all browsers.
Refresh only in IE8.0.

Comment by richlv [ 2010 Aug 10 ]

hmm. seems to work just fine here in opera.
what do you mean by map not being refreshed ? is it displayed ? does it just stop the slideshow completely from refreshing ?

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Aug 10 ]

Notice the time stamp on the bottom right corner - it does not change, well and of itself does not change the status of icons, while Host actually switched to a Problem state or others.
In IE8.0only it is all refresh with each change of slide.

Map resources of other types (I tried several, including the Graph ) work correctly in all browsers, the only problem with the resources of type Map.

Heh. I do not know how else to explain, I can still in Russian

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Aug 10 ]

Other types of Resources on this same Screen is refresh normally, but the Map is not refresh.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Aug 10 ]

Сompared the Apache log. The slide with the Map will appear exactly at the beginning of a minute in both cases.

From Opera 10.60:
10.x.x.x - - [10/Aug/2010:18:52:55 +0300] "POST /zabbix/slides.php?elementid=2&period=3600&output=html&sid=eec82b5d73ce0d73&upd_counter=1066&pmasterid=mainpage HTTP/1.1" 200 8128
10.x.x.x - - [10/Aug/2010:18:53:00 +0300] "POST /zabbix/slides.php?elementid=2&period=3600&output=html&sid=9c23af384a8742ed&upd_counter=2&pmasterid=mainpage HTTP/1.1" 200 7669

From IE8.0":
10.x.x.x - - [10/Aug/2010:18:50:54 +0300] "POST /zabbix/slides.php?elementid=2&period=3600&output=html&sid=eec82b5d73ce0d73&upd_counter=1062&pmasterid=mainpage HTTP/1.1" 200 8124
10.x.x.x - - [10/Aug/2010:18:51:00 +0300] "POST /zabbix/slides.php?elementid=2&period=3600&output=html&sid=e4fc8e1c306fc873&upd_counter=2&pmasterid=mainpage HTTP/1.1" 200 7671
10.x.x.x - - [10/Aug/2010:18:51:01 +0300] "GET /zabbix/map.php?noedit=1&sysmapid=2&width=500&height=100 HTTP/1.1" 200 38872

Difference is that the IE8.0 makes a request last GET, and Opera does not.
No more words

ZBX-2852

Comment by Konstantin Buravcov (Inactive) [ 2010 Oct 28 ]

Reviewed and tested. Works as expected.

branches/1.8 15136

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Oct 28 ]

Tested. Now Map on Slides updated automatically in all browsers.
But how about inconsistence of concept which i described in Description to issue?
You not agree? Maybe need to reopen for not forget?

Comment by richlv [ 2010 Oct 28 ]

do you mean the naming of slideshow delays-intervals-whatever ?
well, that's more of a feature request, and probably something for later when consistency and usability drive finally starts

so maybe worth filing as a separate zbxnext

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Oct 30 ]

I do not agree that this is should be zbxnext IMHO.
Created separate ZBX-3161.
This is issue fully closed.
