Snapshots, text sections

[torchiaf]

Below are listed the areas of Snapshots UI where we show textual information, and for each of them, a list of sections where text can be changed + current implementation (screenshot and label from en.json).
We should agree together on the simplest and clearest possible way to present those information to the users.

1. Empty page

   • Empty list message

   heading: No snapshots found
   body: Click on Create Snapshot to get started
   

3. Create page

   • Info banner
   • Default name

   default name example: Snap_2023-10-10_10_10_00
   info: 'Rancher Desktop will be temporarily unavailable while creating a new Snapshot'
   

4. Create - blocking dialog

   • Title
   • Body message informing the user about status of the application during the creation

         message: "Please wait while snapshot '<b>'{snapshot}'</b>' is created.'<br/>'This may take some time, depending on your machine's resources.'<br/>'Rancher Desktop will be temporarily unavailable during this operation.'<br/><br/>'Once the snapshot is complete, the VM will restart."
   

5. Delete - confirmation

   • Title

   header: Permanently delete snapshot?
   

6. Restore - confirmation

   • Title
   • Body message

   header: Restore snapshot?
   info: 'Restoring this snapshot will replace your current installation, including preferences. If the preference window is open, it will be automatically closed, and any unsaved changes will be discarded.'
   

7. Restore - blocking dialog

   • Title
   • Body message

   header: 'Restoring {snapshot}'
   message: "Please wait while snapshot '<b>'{snapshot}'</b>' is restored. This may take some time, depending on your machine's resources.<br/><br/>Rancher Desktop will be temporarily unavailable during this operation. Once completed, the VM will restart with the {snapshot} snapshot active."
   

8. Create/Restore - generic blocking dialog after the startup

   • Title
   • Body message

   header: Snapshot operation in progress
   message: "Please wait while the snapshot operation is active.<br/>This may take some time, depending on your machine's resources.<br/>Rancher Desktop will be temporarily unavailable during this operation.<br/><br/>Once the snapshot process is complete, the VM will restart."
   

9. All dialogs - errors

   • format of error messages

10. Banners - delete/restore/create

    • success message
    • error message

Overall, the copy in those sections look good. Minor English nitpicks:

• It's a European habit in other languages but we should remove the comma in this sentence/phrase in all areas (primarily Steps 4, 7 & 8):
  This may take some time, depending on your machine's resources. which should read
  This may take some time depending on your machine's resources.
  The other sentences that begin with the Once phrase use the comma correctly.
• if we refer to the tab with the Preferences, then we shouldn't say Preference tab -- let's make that plural in Step 6 (with the comma update):
  If the Preferences window is open, it will be automatically closed and any unsaved changes will be discarded.
