When using Navigator for i (Nav4i) add the function used in the tab name in use by Nav4i in that tab.

Navigator for i is a great tool to manage your IBM i environment. It allows you to use several tabs, but all those tabs have the same name IBM Navigator for i. 

When having a tab open for:

  • Inquiry messages
  • Custom Charts 
  • ARE Console
  • Active Jobs
  • Performance Investigate Data

Knowing which is which is hard to tell if the all have the same tab name "IBM Navigator for i". I would like to haven the tab name follow the function being used in the tab name. Would it not be very helpful if when using the Active jobs function, the tab name would reflects this?

    The CEAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a HIGH priority requirement that is important to address. This would greatly enhance the usability of Navigator for i.

    Background: The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a crucial role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your RFE.

    To find out how CEAC help to shape the future of IBM i, see CEAC @ https://comeur.org/what-is-ceac/ .
