| Summary | 0011346: The Item menu is too bloated | ||||
| Description | The Scribus Item menu is on the way to surpass XPress in terms of menu clutter in its Item menu. On Linux it's already using 2 columns, and under eComStation it may be even 3 by now. Here are some suggestions to clean this up: 1) Move "Delete" to the "Edit" menu. 2) Create an entry "Duplicate/Transform" with the sub-entries "Duplicate", "Multiple Duplicate", "Transform". 3) Create an entry "Grouping" with the sub-entries "Group", "Ungroup", "Adjust Group". 4) Create an entry "Locking" with the sub-entries "Lock Item", "Lock Item Size", "Unlock Item", "Unlock Size". 5) Move the "Table" entry to a separate "Table" item in the menu bar (many users of word processors will be familiar with this). The sub-entries of the current are already of a similar size to "Extras" 6) Create an entry "Adjust" with the sub-entries "Frame height to Text", "Frame to Image", "Image to Frame". 7) Create an entry "Image" with all the current image-related entries from "Update Image" to "Preview Settings". 8) Create an entry "Text Frame Links" with the sub-entries ranging from the current "Link Text Frames" to "Unlink Text Frames with Text Cut". 9) Move *all* Path-related entries into sub-entries of a "Paths" entry. 10) Move all Weld-related entries into sub-entries of a "Weld" entry. 11) Move "Update Marks" to "Extras". 12. Move the spellchecking entries to "Extras". | ||||
