I would like to have comments on this issue since this issue does in
my opinion a major change in the GUI: the menu is now placed in the
'title' area above the buttons.
this I can not see. For me the current and your patched menu are
visually the same.
Look at the title of the tab ... It is grey.
The arrow on the right is not the menu anymore (it means that on my
screen which is little, there are other buttons).
Note also the new way to display relate, report and wizard actions to
maximize the working area (and avoid multiple toolbars which, I think,
is ugly).
+1 for one and only one toolbar. Now we have one toolbar with three kinds of
buttons:
simple button(save, reload,...), choose button with icon (print, action,
relation) and a choose button without icon (menu):
There is no more a button without icon.
My opinions:
* To reduce complexity, for me the menu button should have an icon,
too.
* If possible the triangle for choosing at a choose button should be
closer to the button it is associated to. For now the triangle is
in the middle between two buttons. Maybe combine both to a single
button with choosing functionality could be the best.
This is probably a gtk theme issue.
* Close button can be removed, since it duplicates the close button on
the tab.
Maybe. I don't have an opinion on this.
In general I am missing a vision/roadmap/goal for the evolution of the
client.
That's because there is no roadmap. When people give us ideas about
the client, we discuss them and if they look OK then we try to
implement them.
Server side everything is a kind of clear, all power to active
record pattern and a rapid prototyping framework.
The client is a subtle mix of hack, good design and spaghetti code.
You have to dive deep down into it to work on it. There is plenty of
room for improvements in this area which give a very low reward.
The server has been improved quite a lot from its tinyerp time and now
its design is clear and understandable, so it's much more easy to
define goals.
