Re: [Github-comments] [geany/geany] [Feature Request] -- Graphics for Cut/Copy/Paste (#1739)

2018-01-13 Thread Matthew Brush
@AdamDanischewski such functionality could be done in a Geany plugin. If you or 
someone feels like pursuing this, and needs any help/support, you can join the 
[development mailing list](https://www.geany.org/Support/MailingList) or 
there's usually a number of developers familiar with Geany's code and plugin 
system [on IRC](https://www.geany.org/Support/IRC). I don't imagine anyone 
would oppose adding such a plugin to the 
[Geany-Plugins](https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins) project to help get it 
distributed to end-users.

You seem to have not really wrapped your brain around the idea here. What I 
meant to articulate is a way to provide visuals with regards to ANY editor 
behavior. Ideally you could launch a notifications editor and select the skins 
for various items and attach them to any functionality and perhaps have an 
overlay grid of the editor to pin point where they should appear - sound 
effects wouldn't hurt either that way you don't need to move your eyes to know 
that what you wanted to happen has happened. 

At the moment, this editor seems fine the way it is, no one thinks its odd or 
weird to have such a quiet editor. Yet if you implemented this feature in the 
appropriate way, my guess is that people would not be capable of letting go of 
them and would be locked in/hooked on them. I think its useful not for purposes 
of locking users into Geany, yet for the reduction in stress and I think that 
is a big reason why it would lock people in. When you eliminate sources of 
hidden stress you are alleviated into a higher state of well being.

Cut and Paste both have visible results.  Cut could be confused with delete, 
but that's about all.
Anyway, this kind of thing should likely better be integrated higher in the 
platform's clipboard handling than inside a specific app (here, Geany) as you 
probably want the same behavior in all apps.

This won't likely be implemented in Geany, but you can likely either write a 
Geany plugin or a standalone app reacting to clipboard changes.

[Github-comments] [geany/geany] [Feature Request] -- Graphics for Cut/Copy/Paste (#1739)

2018-01-12 Thread AdamDanischewski
I think it would help productivity and reduce stress if there were little 
graphics that kind of sauntered up when doing things that are presently met 
with invisibility. 

For instance when you copy something, you hit Ctrl-C that's fine, most people 
know that it works and are somewhat comfortable, but your brain could construct 
the idea that you hit the wrong key that causes an invisible 
quasi-imperceptible amount of stress. That stress could be removed making the 
editor much more enjoyable to work with by adding a graphic. 

For example,  a cutesy little graphic that appears to the right hand side of 
the editor border, a gradient trail of smaller versions of it self (. .o 0 O 0 
o .) while swerving back and forth before disappearing off the edge of the 
editor (with a label - for example Copy).  Something like hello-kitty meets ICQ 
would probably be pleasant, yet if you could make it a skin style that could be 
changed that would probably be ideal. 

This behavior should probably be capable of being turned off in the settings, 
yet would probably make a decent default.
