The main problem was that the supervisor did not get enough information about each project, mainly who the authors were, when selecting them in the dropdown.

To remedy this, the dropdown has been completely replaced with a checkbox based approach showing the title as well as project type, authors, and start date for each project. The projects are sorted first by start date (descending) and then title, based on the assumptions that newly created projects are the most relevant when setting up groups.

In addition extra "quick buttons" have been added in an effort to reduce the number of clicks required to accomplish varying tasks.

Fixes

How to test

  1. Log in as evan@example.com
  2. Go to "My groups"
  3. Click "Create new group"

Like the new approach a lot.

Looks clean. Responds well to zooming and resizing in the browser.
Selection addresses both fat finger and shaky hands syndromes i.e. you don't have to hit the checkbox
but the entire box responds to selection.
Very good that the mouse cursor changes to a select icon, gives good feedback to the user.

Big plus that this approach made it possible to remove old code, making the source files shorter and more concise.

If a project was inactive or completed it was not included in the "relevant projects" list so that they could never be removed from the group. Now all current projects in the group are always included. If such a project is removed it can however not be added back.

It looks great. I like the responsive design and I like that you can edit the group just clicking on the chosen projects.
