Christian Lenz created NETBEANS-505:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Separate statusbar windows from statusbar
Key: NETBEANS-505
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-505
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: platform - Window System
Affects Versions: Next
Reporter: Christian Lenz
Attachments: Statusbar.png
In my opinion and of seen a lot of applications, it doesn't make sense to add
some windows like output, search or whatever you want to use, into the
statusbar. The statusbar should be clean and should have additional information
of the project/file which is open.
Like Encoding (UTF-8, etc. with a switcher for the editor of the open file),
Cursor position (Line: 2, Column: 3), Which language the document have: (DE,
EN, etc. with a switcher for the editor of the open file), Line endings (CRLF,
LF, CR, with a switcher for the editor of the open file), Which branch I am for
the project (With a switcher), the notification bubble to show how mayn
notifications we have, action item errors ((x) 2 (!) 1 and on click in should
open the action items for errors or warnings for this file) and some other
information.
For each of this, which is still missing, I will create separeted tickets. But
this ticket is to have an option to separate the windows, which are attached to
the statusbar, from it. Because some people want them down there, some not. For
me It is not a question of sense, it is a question of UI. I attached a
screenshot, where you can see what I mean. The windows, that I have attached to
the bottom are a lot and I have the progress bar and and and.
So please add an option that I can choose whether I want the windows on bottom,
merged with the statusbar or it should be a new one above the status bar.
Cheers
Chris
