This is a redesign of the assignment settings.

• Get rid of tabbed browsing - with the many (conditional) tabs WebLab currently has, it is hard to get an overview of the settings.
• Split settings into separate pages that make sense
• Group setting pages into categories shown in the sidebar
• The sidebar will have common settings categories that are available for all types of assignments, and 1 category specific to the type of question
• With this reorganization of settings, parts of the of settings (which were grouped in tabs/panels) will also be redesigned to:
  • use common UI elements accross the settings pages
  • have a simple interface with less distracting UI elements
• Drop “Done” button, which is confusing. One just needs to “Save” settings, and use the view modes from the navigation bar to navigate away from the settings

We’ve made the following draft of the new settings organization
