Hi Christian,
That could be work in different ways.
My first idea was that it should work like nautilus display the folder
path on the top when you navigate through your folders.
e.g. Edit > Past As
But I think this need to much space when you have a menu path with more
as 2 or 3 levels.
Meanwhile I think better is to display following structure: Home (Back
to Top Menu Level) | Back (only visible from level 3 and higher) |
Current Menu Level (e.g. "Past As")
Also I made a failure in my picture. The Button "Show Fav" should not
show the favourites. the favourites I already have in my example in the
panel or top bar.
The button should show by clicking the most used or history of used menu
points. Perhaps also both.
Additional idea from yesterday evening. I think it would usefully if you
give ever menu point and level a number.
Eg. Edit (Nr. 2) > Past (Nr 3) or File (Nr. 1) > Save (Nr. 2)
The users could use this numbering to have for every menu point a short cut.
Eg. User press: Alt > 2 > 3 > Enter (HUD should update the view during
typing)
A benefit of this would be that also menu points of an application which
have by default no shortcut enabled you can upgrade this over the HUD.
I think in this way you gave the users all possibilities navigate
through the application menu with every input device.

Hi Marco, how would the breadcrumb (Level 1 > Level 2 > Level 3) work?

Hi,
yes I absolutely agree with you that is for 12.04 to radical but
in generally with HUD you have the possibility.
I think it is important that the users have both possibilities.
HUD command search and traditional menu (only a other view).
I created a small picture how I imagine this.

Sorry for the bad quality but I'm no gimp genius.

1. Remove the whole menu from the Top Bar and replace it with a
button.
That would be way too radical for 12.04. That won't happen, or at
least I hope so. The last thing we need now, is large and sudden
changes. What we need now, is for new options to be added, for
people to try it out, talk about them and then we see what works.
Only when we know that things work in real life, should it be
used by default and things should not be removed at the same time
as something new is added, unless it is absolutely necessary
because of a conflict. And in those cases, it shouldn't be done
in a hurry.
In fact, though I love the HUD as an idea, I'm not sure I'd
recommend that it be used by default in 12.04. 2-3 months isn't
that much time to test a radical new idea, and pushing poorly
tested, highly visible things in an LTS is a gamble.
I like your ideas, and I think it would be better to wait until
12.10 to add it by default. By then it should be well tested and
it could have a more complete feature set. Of course, the
decision is not mine, but that's how I feel about it. :)
