#306: v.in.ogr GUI is missing --o and --v --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: msieczka | Owner: [email protected] Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 6.4.0 Component: wxGUI | Version: svn-develbranch6 Resolution: | Keywords: Platform: All | Cpu: All --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment (by cmbarton):
I've followed this but haven't had the chance to relook at the options dialog tabs closely to see what the commotion is about until today. The flatnotebook control, probably for nice aesthetic reasons, does not show partial tabs but only complete ones if a window is too small to show all tabs. To recap, this behavior has misled some folks into thinking that there are not more tabs to the right. However, there is a visual clue--one that people need to get used to, of course, but a consistent one--to additional tabs beyond the right OR left side of the window. The little arrows on the right will be darkened in any direction that there are hidden tabs. There are some customizations possible for flatnotebook tabs, but I don't see anywhere that we can change the behavior that you either see all of a tab or you see none of the tab. The arrow buttons are a nice indicator of hidden tabs. This is a bit of a learning curve, especially for new users. But it's not too bad. There are some other kinds of notebook controls, of course. Most lack arrow buttons to move to tabs outside the window. After we get this version well-stablized and bugs fixed, we can look into other kinds of notebooks for the layer control area (e.g., AuiNotebook) to see what advantages and disadvantages there might be. IMHO, the tabs we are using now look quite nice aesthetically. Michael -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/306#comment:18> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org>
