What would be the ideas to design a UI where the toolbar has to change based on the perspective? The perspective, however, determines the workflow that the application offers. So, the perspectives also should get appropriate representation. Currently I am thinking of something like below. Suppose the perspectives are as "Edit", "Group" and "Print"
Toolbar with edit perspective selected ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [[EDIT]] [GROUP] [PRINT] <cut> <copy> <paste> <rename> Toolbar with group perspective selected ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [EDIT] [[GROUP]] [PRINT] <collect> <move> <export> Toolbar with print perspective selected ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [EDIT] [GROUP] [[PRINT]] <preview> <options> <print> EDIT, GROUP and PRINT are tabs and rest is toolbar buttons This way, the workflow is in focus. But this looks a bit primitive, does anyone have some 'cool' ideas? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
