    Description

      Create a UX concept which works for the installation UX.

       

      The current user flow:

      1. Open Maintenance tool
      2. Sign in
      3. Select: Add or Remove
      4. Select Creator 14.0 to be installed (my current version is 13.0)
      5. Switching Qt version to something newer
      6. Click install - took 20min or more.
      7. Install finished
      8. I open Creator, and it is still version 13.0
      9. I open Maintenance tool again and see that I had selected Creator 14, but that the installed version is 13.0
      10. I close Maintenance tool frustrated and search where are all Creator versions installed. 
      11. I find Version 11.0, which I have installed as a standalone at some point, and that 13.0 version. I am wondering where is that version 14.0 I waited for 20min
      12. I open Maintenance tool again, and I select Update (instead of Add or Remove). I remembered that there was this weirdness. 
      13. I see a listing of apps (Creator 14.0 included) to be installed. Only now I get it installed. 

       

      To fix this:

      • We need to show to the user in the tree what has been installed with some symbol, tag, or whatever works
      • When selecting or deselecting items, they get updated - there should not be a second update workflow.

       

      All in all, we need to get rid of two flows - there should only be one flow. This needs to be determined by devs if possible
