Feature request: partitioning

Sun Feb 18, 2018 9:10 pm

Feature request: please disable/hide partitioning menu in Winbox on devices, which don't support partitioning.

Q: What happens if I create partition on device, which doesn't support it? (I'm afraid to try, but I'd like to know...)

A: you will get error message and nothing happens. Don't be afraid and try it.

I have been thinking about how nice it would be to hide unsupported features on a device.
Having unsupported features on a device can be confusing and may not look professional.
I won't make an issue about it, but maybe it is something for the developers to keep in mind
for future updates. I can believe it could need some major coding to do this.

I fully agree.
And the cli structure should be the same like in the winbox in order not to confuse admin too.
