Not sure if you want to put the effort into coding a simple test program - but it could be very informative.
It could/should work online - basically, it would populate randomly the different menu types that you propose, but with random arbitrary words instead of the 'known language' of Blender. On clicking a 'test' button, The program would then give you a random word that appears on the list, and then measure how long it takes you to click the actual word within the menu and log that to a database/spreadsheet. With a tool like this we could make some actual data-driven UI decisions instead of conjecture over which way is better. (Given the spread of who is for changes and who is against, I have a feeling that the preference has strongly to do whether you are a left brained person or a right brained person.) -Sean On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 3:34 AM, David Jeske <dav...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think the visual dividers are a big help, and agree with Michael they > could be a bit dimmer. > > I'll patch this and see if the dividers are enough (subjectively) to get > over the flip-flopping confusion. > > > On Sun, Jul 7, 2013 at 9:17 PM, Harley Acheson <harley.ache...@gmail.com > >wrote: > > > Short of a big overhall, there are also simple things we can do. > > > > The following shows the current menu on the left.
