A
So
let
me
walk
you
through
the
prototypes
that
we've
gone
through
and
kind
of
share
some
insights
along
the
way.
So
what
we
did
for
the
user
menu
was
look
at
the
menu
from
simplifying
the
options
and
making
this
area
clickable.
So
it
felt
good
to
edit
profile,
and
I
wanted
to
view
my
profile
clicking
on
this-
would
take
you
to
this
page
at
the
moment.
That's
not
the
case.
A
This
area
here
is
not
clickable,
so
we're
thinking
of
making
that
clickable,
so
that
these
actions
down
here
are
more
around
changing
or
setting
things,
and
this
would
navigate
you
to
that
page,
because
currently
this
only
says
profile.
So
we
just
want
to
clarify
that
this
link
will
take
you
to
the
editing
part
of
it,
and
preferences
is
something
that
we
explore
to
see
if
it
will
make
clear
to
change
themes
or
dark
modes
and
light
modes,
and
that
was
well
received.
A
What
we
go
with
for
the
final
result
of
this
is
something
that
we're
going
to
look
at
through
over
the
next
few
planning
sessions
for
the
next
few
milestones
with
the
top
navigation.
What
we
looked
at
was
this
thing
here,
where
we
would
combine
projects,
groups
and
more
into
one
long
list,
and
here
we
will
keep
the
familiar
interface
of
having
the
searching
and
recently
visited
projects
and
also
compare
that
versus
frequently
visited
projects
overall.
A
This
was
well
received
by
participants
and
we're
going
to
look
at
breaking
this
down
into
an
epic
to
break
this
down
in
smaller
iterable
steps
so
that
we
can
start
looking
at
rolling.
This
out,
in
some
kind
of
shape
over
the
next
few
milestones
regarding
switching
projects.
What
we
we're
looking
at
here
is
switching
projects.
A
An
overall
majority
of
people
said
no,
don't
do
this
because
they
didn't
understand
what
was
happening
because
you're
switching
it
from
the
top
level
and
they
actually
expected
us
to
land
you
into
the
project
overview
and
to
quote
one
user.
One
participant.
He
said
that,
like
he'll
like
to
see
home
first
before
navigating
out
it
kind
of
gave
them
a
sense
of
sense
of
place
before
navigating
out.
So
that
makes
sense
for
us
and
that
that
helps
us
iterate
forward.
A
Similarly,
we
also
tested
this
same
kind
of
scenario,
but
this
time
using
a
breadcrumb
to
switch.
So
here
I'm
in
lab
coat
and
I
switched
to
a
different
project
and
users
actually
really
loved
this,
because
they
felt
more
in
control
of
the
situation
and
because
of
the
context
of
where
this
drop
down
is
relative
to
where
you're
currently
in
the
switching
actually
made
more
sense.
A
At
the
moment,
switching
projects
and
issues
kind
of
there's
some
interaction,
things
that
we
need
to
work
out
and
iron
out.
That's
why
we
have
a
actual
insight
to
follow
up
on
this
and
we
hope
to
go
through
another
round
of
solution,
validation
around
improving
the
way
of
getting
to
different
projects
within
gitlab
for
the
next
few
milestones.
Thank
you.
