Hi all; As an adjunct to Josh's post on workflow, I would like to propose the beginnings of a user interface guideline discussion (which can be hopefully eventually formalized in a document). This would affect all new code.
1) All data entry screens should be keyboard navigable. All buttons should have accesskeys, and after updating screens, the cursor should focus at the next point of work. Common work points of entry ought to also have access keys associated with them. These should be documented at the time of design. 2) Menu organization should be in order from most used to least used, with ties being sorted in alphabetical order. Menus should have access keys if possible, and these would be set aside and reserved (i.e. not available for 3) Avoid tabindex. With the eventual componentization of the application, this is likely to cause more problems than it solves. Any further ideas, feedback, thoughts?
