[Gimp-user] [Gimp-developer] volunteer needed for preferences dialog
Hi, I am forwarding this mail to gimp-user because there hasn't been any response on the gimp-developer mailing-list. Perhaps I can reach a potential contributor here or at least get some user feedback... --- Begin Message --- Hi, IMO it's about time to try to clean up the preferences dialog once more. Here are a couple of ideas on how the dialog could be improved: - I'd like to see the "Interface" group be removed. That would flatten the hierarchy which is kind of arbitrary at the moment. - The theme chooser should be moved to a separate page, the Interface page is rather crowded. - Input device configuration should either be redone or moved to another page. Having it on a page of it's own doesn't make too much sense. - The items on the session management page could IMO be moved to other pages. - Perhaps we should show the dialog with the Folders section collapsed. That would make the dialog smaller and less frightening. - We could IMHO remove a couple of options. They could stay to be configurable via gimprc but we don't necessarily need a GUI for all of these. Possible candidates for removal are IMO: - undo-preview-size - info-window-per-display - tearoff-menus - last-opened-size - use-help - perfect-mouse - cursor-updating - min-colors - install-colormap - stingy-memory-use - trust-dirty-flag - restore-session - restore-accels These changes are all rather easy to do so this is a nice job for a fresh contributor who isn't afraid to learn some gtk+ and gimp basics. Please do also not understand the above as a list of instructions. This is just how I would address the problem. If you pick up the job then it's up to you to decide how it is done in detail.
