  1. NDE: Make all search profile slots visible in the drop-down list without the need for scrolling

    We are currently testing the NDE and have noticed that when we go to the search profile slot drop-down to choose a filter (please see attached image), we see only three of our four search profile slots at a time and have to scroll down to see the fourth. In our current Primo VE, all four options are visible without a user's having to scroll (please see attachment). Could visibility of all search profile slots in the drop-down list be restored in the NDE?

  2. Primo NDE UI: position of "Expand my results"

    In Primo NDE UI the function "Expand my results" is located with “All filters”, which are closed by default.
    Since "Expand my results" is not a filter but precisely an expansion, our patrons, who are not familiar with how CDI search operates, will never look it up among "All filters".
    We would like this function to be moved elsewhere, maybe on top of the results list, after the quick filters.

    Planned  ·  AdminYael (yael.shahar@clarivate.com, Ex Libris) responded

    Thanks for this idea.

    We are planning to change the location of the "Expand my results" toggle - it might be similar to the way it currently displayed in the citation trail page.

    This will also address the cases where there is only 1 results and the toggle is not displayed in such cases.

  3. Primo NDE UX, main menu links labels

    In Primo NDE UX, in the top bar, the main menu links labels display in just one line, therefore if one label is long the link takes more space.
    However, the number of links to appear depends on how much space they take. The result is that with languages which use long words, such as Italian or German, less links appear than in Primo VE, where the labels could wrap in more than one line.
    We would like the ability of breaking labels in more than one line to be reinstated.

  4. Add very compact display option, 1 row per title

    Please add a really compact additional display option
    – 1 row per title
    – no icon

    to allow an overview / quick scanning of long result lists.

    When I do a search on my laptop, I see two titles on the result list and the start of a third.

    Default number of results for the compact display should be 100 or more.

    And it should be a setting in the patron account.

  5. account request date

    Add the request's date on the user's account

    We would like that the user can see the date when he makes a request (hold or ILL) on his account.

    We think that's will be an improvement for the users.
