Re: [Gimp-developer] Re: [Gegl-developer] The GUADEC meeting
One thought, if the complexity is worth it: when the menus are rearranged, GIMP could also provide a way of calling up the standard organized menus on the fly, or even make a way for alternate menus to be selectable and customizable at runtime, persistence could be an option. _-T ___ Get Juno Platinum for as low as $4.97/month!

It seems to be wanted by enough of our users that we should give it some serious thought, though.

Hi, Sven Neumann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Rearranging the core menus is a matter of editing a couple of XML files. I should probably add that this is primarily meant as a way to easily edit the menu structure with the goal of getting these changes accepted in the GIMP development tree. I don't like the idea of seeing forks of the menu structure since this will make documentation difficult to say the least. It will also break mnemonics. Mnemonics are defined in the menu labels and their translations and a lot of effort has gone into avoiding collisions. Moving menus around will finally make string changes necessary which is something that you cannot do with the GtkUiManager XML files. The possibility to easily rearrange the menus is nice to have but should be used with care.
