Display status is Yellow for both Disconnected and Downloading

[Alan McFarlane]

In the Display page it is difficult to see that a device is offline. Currently a device that not logged-in appears Yellow. Even one that has failed to contact for hours/days appears Yellow. That is the same colour as a device that is currently in the process of downloading content. The helps says: Red = missing content, Yellow = downloading missing content, Green = Up to Date.

1) Suggest a different colour for not-logged-in devices: Blue? (Blue as in cold. Or grey?)

Or should the seriousness scale be:
 • Up-to-date: Green.
 • Downloading: Yellow.
 • Not logged-in since Content change. ?Amber
 • Not logged-in since Alert period. ?Red

2) The status cross/tick for LoggedIn is somewhere in the middle of the table. Suggest move it leftwards to be more apparent, e.g. order columns: { Id D LI LA L EA DL ID IP MA }.

3) Each row displays over two lines, taking up vertical space due to Date's datetime wrapping over two lines. Ideally the Date would be omitted for datetimes in the last day/24hrs; just the time is enough them.

Can't believe I just typed both Yellow and Amber. Might not be too easy to tell apart!

1.7.0-beta has a new status column that represents the old colours:

tick = up to date (used to be green)
! = not logged in since content change (used to be yellow)
cross = player downloading (used to be red)

We don't have a status for "not logged in since alert period"

We will mark this up and have a think about how we can improve.
