Summary08776: Poor usability caused Email to be unexpectedly sent to all participants in a survey
Description

I attempted to send a survey to just 2 participants as a test before unleashing the survey on all the rest. Instead of 2 invites being sent, all invites were sent.

As a user, I do not want the interface to suprise me. Irreversible actions such as sending invitations should provide an indication as to what they are going to do and allow that action to be cancelled.

Steps To Reproduce

Add a list of say 10 participants to a survey.
Type something in the filter box to reduce the list of displayed particpants to a small subset of the full list.
Now click the icon to send invitations.

Note that the survey invitation is sent to all participants.

  1. The email preview dialog box does not have a cancel button.
  2. The email preview dialog box indicate how many emails will be sent.
  3. The filter only seems to limit what is displayed. It does not seem to control actions such as send invitations. This is very unintuitive.
TagsNo tags attached.
