PAW UI Tweaks

Planning Analytics Workspace (PAW) has some slightly UI annoyances that can be easily ironed out with some local javascript code.

For example, saving a process will generate a popup "process saved successfully" while hiding the "Run" button. So you are forced to wait that the popup disappears to be able to run that process, or aim for the tiny cross on that popup to close it, then aim again for the Run button.

popup hiding "Run" button

Sure, you can open a new ticket to IBM support and pray they will implement in a few years, if the IBM support doesn't close it with a dismissive "it works as intended" or you can use the code below to fix it immediately:

 

In your browser ( Chrome, Edge, Firefox..), create a new bookmark and paste the following javascript code in the URL field:

javascript:(function(){
    var elements = document.querySelectorAll('div.ba-common-globaltoastcontainer.glass-global-toast-container');
    elements.forEach(function(el) { el.style.top = '300px'; });
})();

Then open then PAW tab, and click on that new bookmark.

Now, edit your process, save it and voilà:

the popup is not hiding the interface anymore

All the interface is still visible and you can execute your process without waiting for the popup to go away.

This UI change will persist until you fully reload the PAW window or logout from your PAW session.
