Redis Memory Limit: possibility to write value

[p44]

Dear all,

I would like to configure 512 Mb as Redis Memory Limit, but with drag & drop selector it seems that is almost impossible...

When I drag, system let me select 256 > 384 > 640, but not 512.

So, feature request is to add ability to allow manual writing of value, eg. in a text box.

Thank's a lot

Given that this is just the upper limit and even then the allocated limit might end up slightly different anyways for the real container, it doesn't make too much sense to give exact values.

@nebulon I cannot setup 512 value with actual system, I can only select 384 or 640...

I did, but I had to change screen resolution to "catch" 512 value...

[nebulon]

Maybe when we rework that bit in the UI or the slider widget, we can add something more explicit, but given that the actual value-add here is close to nothing, I think we have other things to spend time on for the moment. I get the ocd trigger for such values though...

@nebulon Ok! this could be a good solution

I don't fully understand this.

Maybe so (although I still don't really understand why not), but it does make sense to improve what is currently really rather bad UX.

Myself and quite a few others (see e.g. here and here) have I think mentioned the difficulty in selecting the values we want quite a few times previously and it still bugs me every time I have to do it.

Perhaps just add some little up/ down arrows the allow it to be moved in small increments or something?

Either way, whilst I agree it's not that important in the overall scheme of things, it remains frustrating, and in contrast to the rest of Cloudron which generally has a really nice smooth UX

Very good advice... up/down will be much more better

I like this idea too. I am not sure where we picked this bizzare slider from

In my CAD software, the sliders can be clicked on, and then you can manually enter a value. The best of both worlds. Maybe we can implement this method.

@humptydumpty Do you have a screenshot you can share?

[humptydumpty]

Sure. Uno momento.

Front End

I can't upload a MP4 video (less than 1mb). Not enough permission. In the video it shows an alternative method where you can click on the slider and input a value.

Here's a screenshot showing a slider in default state and when it's clicked on.

I found an online website to conver the mp4 to gif!
