which have both a horrible UI. I regularly get lost in the
intransparent structure when using either of these apps.
However, I have noticed that LyX does have rather few main menus:
LyX: 8
Word: 9
Pages: 9
Writer: 11
So, creating a new menu might be a way to have it all.
It also needs to make sense. "Insert" is hard to split sensibly.
I agree that the menus of these apps are complex. But that might be in
their nature. I guess the Ribbon was a (maybe controversial) attempt to
solve this problem. But I think LyX with its hidden menus is actually
worse to figure out. I am still discovering (otherwise) hidden menu
entries and I have been using LyX for quite some time now.
If it is really necessary to cut down on menu entries in the "Insert"
menu when disabled entries get enabled: For example, create a separate
"References" menu.
