Attached is a simple patch that ought to:
Allow Ctrl+P as a shortcut for Print
Cause "New" to open a new window
Cause "Open" to open a new window
Cause NameError exceptions when loading a file to be dealt with like
IOErrors
it was entirely guesswork so it's possible that something will break
horribly. If anything does, I haven't noticed in the last few minutes ;)
Other random things whilst I remember (some of which I'll get to
eventually no doubt):
The Edit Dataset dialog seems to be borked. The rename button stays in
the depressed state once pressed. The close button is too wide.
The "New Dataset" dialog is fun but it should probably have a menu item
and be called "Create Dataset" or something that makes it clear it's not
importing a dataset. As well as a link to that, the Edit Dataset dialog
needs a button to open the import dialog.
New datasets should, by default, be given the number of points that one
of the datasets in the document has (in the most common case these will
all be equal... otherwise it probably doesn't matter much).
There should be a way to unlink a file... although I suppose this
happens automagically when all the datasets are deleted?
Settings that require the selection of one of the axes should be a
dropdown rather than a input box
It would be neat to have a little [...] button at the end of text
inputs for e.g. functions which opened a (non-modal) dialog to update
the text in that input using a textarea - this would allow more space
An easy way of converting a fit into a function would be good (maybe the
paramaters for the fit should go into some sort of grid with a column
for the name and one for the value? This would make entering things
easier but the results harder to copy)
Is keyboard focus in the settings panels going to the labels a result of
the context menus or is it normal? In either case, it seems suboptimal...
