Comment:
Replying to [ticket:102 cmbarton]:
> Someone went through and added new tabs to several of the module
interface sections. This is nice. However, in the couple I've run into
(e.g. r.colors and v.in.ascii), the "required" tab is the bottom one on
the stack and rightmost tab. That is the stuff that is most important is
the most
strange, I cannot reproduce this behaviour, 'Required' tab is the most-
left on my machine. Looking at the code, 'Required' (formerly called
'Main') should be always first, see
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/gui/wxpython/gui_modules/menuform.py#L865
> hidden. Also v.in.ascii required output vector name is in the options
section, not the required
I see this option in 'Required tab', see the attached screenshot.
> section, and while the input raster name for r.colors is in the required
section, its description says it is optional.
The input parameter is option because
{{{
-l List available rules then exit
}}}
then you don't need to set dummy value for 'r.colors -l' (otherwise
'r.colors in=dummy -l'). For GUI dialog this parameter is forced to be
moved to 'Required' tab.
{{{
option->guisection = _("Required");
}}}
It seems to me less confusing for GUI user - "I want to change color table
of raster map, then I am expecting input raster map name to be required".
Maybe tab should called 'Main' not 'Required'.
