What I am explaining above is the current behaviour WITHOUT your PoC, and this behaviour is LOST with the patch. With the patch, if you want to open more than two times the same menu entry, you have to move the second tab to the first notebook and SHIFT+click again, and repeat this two actions for each extra list you want to open. For this reason I suggest to separate the two features in two modifiers/menu options: mantain the current behaviour of SHIT modifier to open a new tab, and other modifier or menu option (here my proposal of Split window menu option) for the multinotebook feature. > > > > But currently it only works when click in menu, not in relate action > nor > > > > bookmarks, so I should extend the behaviour to everywhere. > > > > > > Still don't understand. > > > > And now? > > > > > > I should put the feature of split notebook area in the client's menus > > (in > > > > existing or in a new "window" menu). > > > > > > Don't understand. > > > > Your proposal could be called "multi notebook" or "split window". > > I don't care about the name, but as the SHIFT modifier is already used > (and > > it is VERY useful and IMHO more coherent with the "new window" behaviour > > found in browsers), I propose to have explicit options in menu. > > Still don't understand. What are «explicit options in menu»? Currently (without your PoC), nor the feature of open a new tab for an already opened menu entry nor the new feature of open in a new notebook aren't in any client menu. I propose to have the action to open the second notebook as an option in "Options / Form" or "User" client menu. > > I think it majes more simple the behaviour: one action is split the > window, > > and it splits the active ones, > > Which action? > > > and other independent action is open the > > view (which is opened in the active window or the first one starting from > > the left). > > Which other action? > > > This behaviour and menu options are usuak in KDE.

It doesn't matter if the task is not userfriendly if the user must to do it. It will be more friendly if the layout help him. -- Guillem Barba http://www.guillem.alcarrer.net
