Thank you for all the updates to the ADF product, I'm being positive with my feedback towards them:
1. The activity connectors: good update, I liked it!
2. The location of the current output icon: I don’t see a big value in this change. A decision to add new activity is always a precalculated step. I spend more time adjusting and configuring new activities after adding them to the pipeline. I was ok to drag new activities from the list knowing where to place them and dedicate all my efforts to configuring it correctly.
3. Updated container objects: It’s a big NO from me and if this becomes a default behaviour for any containers in ADF pipelines, it would be a discouragement. You always “fight” with a limited browser window space to visually locate all the pipeline activities. When all of a sudden the containers will be visually “exploded”, this will eat up this limited window space even more. I don’t need to see the content of the container every time I open my pipelines, I solve this issue by naming and describing this container meaningfully. Also, it would help to have an option to collapse and expand a container part of the code, so that ADF will remember what container I kept collapsed or expanded. Currently behaviour: I collapse a container, but when I open my pipeline, it gets expanded again: not the best user experience.
