Hi Micheal, I studied the MainMenu class and the associated Activity classes, and got a basic idea on how the code is structured. I will get more familiarized with it as you have suggested, to come up with a clean up plan for the source code. I think the required changes of visual menu is all listed here [1]. I went through that and got an idea about the proposed changes. However I could not find a few of the listed problems, in the JOSM version I compiled.
eg: - Remove functionality - *Copy coordinates actions* - Move menu items - *Jump to position -> Two items up and name it Zoom to coordinates...* - Restructure the Tools menu - *Areas: Mirror , join, multipolygon* Are those issues already fixed? Or I might have missed them? And are there any other new requirement other than those, that need to be done? I still could not try out installing new plugins and observe how they fit in. I will do so.
