Hi:
This is the doc I have now. Any comments? Suggestions? Fixes?
Global ideas for this:
- Use common keys first (letters, numbers, Shift, Control)
- Use Alt but not alone, to allow _Foo with Alt+F, and not the first
thing to use
- Try to make rules, by mnemonics (C-q) or by pure tradition (C-z)
- Use Shift for related (negative, special) cases if possible, and
only for unrelated if not usage found
- Remove rarely used keys to avoid getting crowded but as this is a
pro tool, it is not the first thing I am going to do (those who are
cut happy should check the number of combos in other pro tools and
how many times they are used once the user is working and not
playing)
- Leave Fkeys for user (have fun with yellow notes ;] )
Global functions and keys:
Hide and unhide extras Tab
Show image menu Space [New, cool for tablets or in general]
[ to allow menu invocation from ]
[ keyboard, anytime ]
Menus:
<Toolbox>> [Suggestion: make it a single root item like image menu?]
[ That would be a bit rare, but would make all fit fine ]
[ Could be named "Menu [>]" and give hint for "[>]" ]
[ Yes, I am mad and I will get flamed by GUI purists but]
[ think about the space we get, and the standarization, ]
[ all menus would be vertical and "[>]" is taught ]

[One linear vs one with mod. Still dunno which one ]
[ One is more compact and provides some hints based ]
[ in powers of 2 ]
[ The second is more linear, not so easy to remember]
[ or center hand, but linear ]
[ I vote for first, you always have key 1 located ]
[ 5 would be a more complex, IMHO ]
[ Some people want to numbers for brushes, so lets ]
[ talk about it, I think brushes need more things ]
