    Description

      OpenShift Explorer could provide basic instruction about how to create a new connection (where to click) like in Servers view:

      copied from duplicate JBIDE-14587:

      My 1st reflex is, when the view is empty, is to right-click to bring up the OpenShift Management UI. But nothing happens. I need to remember I need to click on the top right button to log-in (which doesn't stand out much on the window background).
      So. I'd welcome a "Connect to OpenShift" menu showing up on right-click, when OpenShift Explorer is empty. That menu doesn't need to appear if already connected.

          Feature Request - Feature requests from customers and/or users JBIDE-11220 Provide "starting point" if there is no account in the OpenShift Express Console view

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
