Comment (by kirkb):
Hey - nice work! Great point about the multiple entries. Not sure how
often this would be the case. Assuming it is not the case we want to
optimize for I've mocked up what I think you're proposing, with a few
extra thoughts on your screenshot.
1 - If there are more than 1 result, have a link that reads "View all
results" or "Show all results" that when clicked opens up a popup menu
where the user can choose to view a specific result.
2 - If an element on the screen requires a lot of space but doesn't offer
a lot of value for scanning (like file paths) then I suggest you put that
info in a tooltip (yellow squares in my mockup). We want to emphasize for
the user certain aspects of the report, and the file path may not be the
most important thing to see for scanning (my eyes tend to ignore paths on
first scan). So leave the important stuff visible (filename) and give
them access to the less important stuff (the user can see the complete
path in the details I imagine, but give them a tooltip so they don't have
to go elsewhere to find that info.
3 - The link in the results should always offer the user the ability to
see more details. If a URL, open the link. If a local file, could we
open the file? Is that what the user wants to do with these local files?
If not, what would they want to do with them?
