Description Luka Renko 2007-01-19 22:38:07 UTC

Version:           0.9.0-svn (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Digikam Image Editor menu is in most aspects very clear (I for example do not agree with bug 103244) and easy to follow, however I have minor comment: I think that View menu (currently between Transform and Filters) should be moved after Edit. That way all major editor operations (Image, Fix, Transform, Filters) would be together, while View would be near Edit which is common with other apps.

New structure would look like this:
- File
- Edit
- View
- Image
- Fix
- Transform
- Filters
- Settings
- Help

Comment 1 Fabien 2007-01-22 14:16:21 UTC

I agree.
I also think the Settings/"Full screen mode" entry should be moved to the View menu... I saw it was a wish reported on Debian bts.

digikam-editor-menu.patch

Proposed patch for current SVN to place View menu after Edit.

If this is OK with digikam authors, I can commit it to KDE SVN.

Comment 3 Luka Renko 2007-01-23 21:53:31 UTC

Fabien, I agree also with your point about Full screen mode which should be moved to View menu (also to match Konqueror which is standard). This has to be done both for Digikam, Digikam Editor and Showfoto. This is already discussed in 89365

Same change for ShowFoto application.
