------- Additional comments from [email protected] Wed Sep 22 13:23:52 +0000 2010 ------- Hi christophnoack, I cannot find much time myself at the moment. So I'll start with some explanations; new ideas and me joining the UX list will come afterwards when I have a few more pictures ready. I compromised the standardized grouping in favor of screen space, although I also added many symbols which aren't shown at all in the standard setting. That is because I tried to fit everything (except the group dividers) into the available space, so that space would not run out so easily if a user wanted to show just some additional symbols. All those non-standard symbols don't have to be shown, they can stay non-standard; another idea how to save space is comming soon. The find bar would only be scaled down as long as it is not active. If you click or write into the tiny text field, the field would be extended like in the image titled "Expanded". Some elements would have exactly two different positions. Currently if two pages are shown side by side, only the ruler of the page the cursor is in shows up - you click on the other page, the ruler changes position (or two rulers change between visible and invisible). I would fill the space of the respective invisible ruler with some of the status info, like the zoom rate - that info is always where the ruler is not. :) The placement of the zoom element for instance could be such, that it is "always on the upper right of one of the pages" (as shown in my examples) or that the line between two pages is like a mirror axis, so the zoom element would be "always next to the middle" and the language selection could be "always a bit away from the middle". That must suffice for now, read you soon on the UX list, nevermore4ever --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
