Hello all, At Boundless we are planning to put some development time in this "unified add layer" button/feature. As others already did, our idea was to use the browser panel as a base for replacing most of the buttons and add any capabilities that are still missing.
So, let's work together to find what are those missing pieces, and how it would be the best way to implement it. We will put our thoughts in the Google document. As soon we have it stabilized we can start creating a QEP for it. Thanks, Alexandre Neto Stéphane Henriod <stephane...@gmail.com> escreveu no dia quinta, 6/04/2017 às 12:14: Thanks Harrissou! I took the liberty to remove the first table (that I created) and to leave only yours. It is more complete anyway Cheers Stéphane Le mercredi 5 avril 2017, DelazJ <del...@gmail.com> a écrit : I took the liberty to do some changes to the doc (especially add a new table with more detailed features on the existing tools + comments). It's supposed to replace the table already drafted but I didn't go so far without a review. 2017-04-05 10:36 GMT+02:00 DelazJ <del...@gmail.com>: Hi Stéphane, actually there's no more UX team (list). UX mailing list has been shut down months ago because it used to refer to dev list for most of decisions/advices so UX matters are now discussed either in the dev mailing list (we maybe can keep this thread) or, I guess until QGIS3 release, in the qgis3_UIX_discussion repository. Regards, Harrissou 2017-04-05 10:19 GMT+02:00 Stéphane Henriod <stephane...@gmail.com>: Hi all there have been a few additions in the Gdoc already (not sure from whom) but I don't know if this is already sufficient for developers to take this up? Also, I am not sure how to reach out to the UX team. Through a separate mailing list? Or is it sufficient to have it here https://github.com/qgis/qgis3_UIX_discussion/issues/1 ?

Here I just created a Gdoc to collect info mentioned in your points 1-4 + a: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aMX9jOfl10q8oETRzOHSHnRpHCc7UJ1dDnCCq3VyTAY/edit?usp=sharing All interested, feel free to contribute, I might not have the full overview Thanks and cheers Stéphane “When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable.

While this is underway I'd also suggest the UX team could test and evaluate Anita's plugin to identify whether the browser alone is a sufficient replacement or whether some tweaks would be required to make it a suitable replacement without any loss of "user friendliness" 1,2,3 and (a) don't require any development experience, so would be a great project for any interested user to undertake. I suspect 4 wouldn't be much work for a developer either after all this groundwork is done. Nyall -- “When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable.
