Really? As far as I can tell, the pulldown menus in the Lesstif HID are mostly random. 'View', 'Settings', 'Connect' and 'Info' are basically one big menu with things semi-randomly distributed among them. Even 'File' has 'About' which is a 'Window' (or a 'Help' if we had one). I have to search for some commonly used menu items every time I use them. Even an item like 'Shown Layers' which I agree is fine under 'View' is wayyy down on the menu even though you might want it all the time. In fact several very large (ie awkward) and commonly used items are at the very bottom of View. I've been strongly tempted to completely replace my own .res file, but then it would be hard to help/get help from other people. Heck, it would also be nice if the commonly used keys (eg 'F11' => select) were on the left hand so I could keep my right hand on the mouse. -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.ben.com/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
