How do you like them?
FWIW: Having read Sascha's Walter's and Aleksey's responses, I think I prefer just inactivating the erase UIs for instantiated activity objects, as Simon already mentioned. Perhaps another slant on this would be to change** Journal "erase" into "stop" palette entries for instantiated activities? ** I know we're not big on menu items that change function, but I'll be damned if I'm going to suggest adding a "stop" item to every Journal object palette (and the details view toolbar); the Journal palettes are already way too large/complicated... [though it would still seem to be a valid reinforcement of the object model] Regards, --Gary > Personal Note: > While I like the inactive-option I am not sure this tells the user why > an option is not available. > > Regards, > Simon > > > > _______________________________________________ > Sugar-devel mailing list > Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org > http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
