I like the new finer control over the http proxy exceptions list. There is a small problem though with the GUI. If you keep on adding more and more exceptions, the list becomes so long that you cannot select anything from the predefined list on the left and drag it to make a new selection. Screenshot attached
I tested on IE8 windows 7. I was using my laptop at the moment and upon further testing, I can see that you can use your wheel mouse and drag at the same time. But a wheel mouse shouldn't be a requirement to make any changes in the gui. Heck I would use my iphone to work on astaro full time if I could just drag and drop. The exceptions categories is a good concept for finer control, I just think the gui is not thought through and exceptions have just been added to the already functional screen from previous versions.
I even opened it on my workstation with 1680x1050 resolution and still had to use the wheel mouse. By the way it also works if I reduce my internet explorer zoom level to 50% but I shouldn't have to do that either[;)]
...But a wheel mouse shouldn't be a requirement ...
i fully agree. i remember that i had a look at the exceptions and that i also had to scroll. But i do not remember if there was a scrollbar on my browser. That's why i asked.

Nice idea ;-)

That's why we do this beta. I'll talk to the developers on this issue, so stay tuned! We really apprecitate this kind of feedback, because sometimes, especially when you're working on a project for that long, you don't notice these kind of issues any more.

First, my apologies for not testing this version extensively. But thank you for listening to the feedback. I think that you guys are a lot more receptive to the feedback for v8 and this will be the best astaro ever. Keep up the good work, I can't wait to test all the new functionalities for the final astaro version 8.
