Hello Edward & Thomas,

I performed an initial test using the current 'devel' branch in my Debian 
VM. - Here are my notes:

###

* Start with 'qt-layout-name = vertical-thirds' & only VR3 enabled.
* List ~ relevant ~ commands - See "Log-001".
* Try 'layout-legacy' - OK -> Layout changed (Ascii-Icon: " _ | _ ", still 
w/o VR pane ...
** -> 'Legacy' layout is what's still shown in the screenshot for Leo's 
main window on the home page.*
*
* Try 'layout-restore-default' - OK -> Layout changed back (Ascii-Icon: " - 
| "), still w/o VR pane ...
* Try 'layout-big-tree' - OK? -> Layout changed (Ascii-Icon: " I "), now 
with VR pane using VR3 as  ~ renderer ~ ...
** ==> Is this implicit 'activation' intended / wanted ?*


Leo has always had VR available if VR3 is not enabled, even if VR isn't 
enabled in settings either. The intent with these layouts is that the 
VR/VR3 slot will be used by VR3 if it is enabled otherwise by VR.  If you 
have both VR and VR3 enabled that's not harmful but VR won't know where it 
should be shown and if it does show it won't be in the appointed place in 
the layout.
 

* Try 'layout-restore-default' - OK -> Layout changed (Ascii-Icon: " - | | 
"), still with VR pane ...
* Try 'layout-quadrant' - OK -> Layout changed to 'legacy' (Ascii-Icon: " + 
"), still with VR pane ...

** ==> What's the difference b/w 'legacy' & 'quadrant' command ?* ==> I do 
not see any & would remove 'quadrant' !*


There isn't a difference and "legacy" has already been removed. It is still 
aliased to "quadrant" for the time being in case anyone is using it by that 
name.  I think that Edward may want to remove "quadrant" as well but that's 
not decided for sure.
 

* Try 'layout-restore-to-setting' - OK? -> Layout changed (Ascii-Icon: " - 
| | "), still with VR pane ...

** ==> What's the difference b/w the two 'restore' commands ?* ==> I do not 
see any & would remove 'default' !*


I agree.  They are two names that actually run the same code.   
'layout-restore-default' was a weak choice of name on my part so I added 
'layout-restore-to-setting' as an alias for it. I'm not sure if we will 
retire the first one, again in case someone is using it, but I wouldn't be 
surprised.
 

** ==> What's the difference b/w 'fallback' & 'vertical-thirds' command ?* 
==> I do not see any & would remove 'fallback' !*

"Fallback" was a provisional name I used for my preferred layout when I was 
developing this layout system so I always could "fall back" to it if 
necessary to do actual work (i.e., not just work on the layout system),. It 
did not have a slot for VR/VR3 but I could open VR3 where I wanted anyway. 
Now the two names are aliases for each other and "fallback" will probably 
go away soon.
