Putting the folder icon on the menubar as proposed in that bug report sounds like a great solution to me for the general problem. This should be much more discoverable than using the icon in the titlebar, and best of all it would be possible right now to implement. It could be added to other document-oriented applications with relative ease (unlike the folder button in the statusbar). It should act like any other icon, so you can move it around or right click on it to get a menu. I do not think that we need add any additional kind of menu to act on the current folder, because this is a very specialized case. In every other case of document-oriented application, the File menu would always act on the document being displayed. Folders are a very rare case where a document contains other documents of the same type, that's why I think the menu entries should act on the current folder if nothing else is selected. -- Daniel Borgmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
