David's Sept 2012 Usability Feature Wish List
Phil Weinstein / Edit 9-08-2013 / See also Phil's 6.4 Development List
RPL -- Note: I don't know if Patrick has handled any of these | ||
1.1 | - When you hit Alt-P to bring up the palette, it re-sorts the functions back to the standard way by Type, not how I last left it (which is alphabetical). | |
1.2 | - Search and Replace should look in Datetimes. It is crucial to find dates and numbers and that tool should be able to do it. | |
1.3 | - If you select a function, the palette list should start with that function selected. Or at least the last function you used. | |
1.4 | - If you double click an expression, there is no way to stop editing. (Patrick says he fixed this so that Esc cancels the edit). Still, if you click away you get a ridiculous warning message, Parse error . | |
1.5 | - Clicking on expr[expr] should replace slot[] with slot[expr] without clearing the slot. | |
1.6 | - When you add an argument to an existing function, there should be a way to update calls to that function (i.e. add the new argument) without recreating the other arguments. | |
Slots | ||
2.1 | 8-5-2013 | - Whenever you execute an Expr slot (or do just about anything to it), it resizes the window. Not good when you have a large expr. |
2.2 | 8-3-2013 | - When you copy a slot and then paste it, it always adds a number to the end. It should only do this when the new name is not unique, not all the time. |
Workspace and Navigation | ||
3.1 | 7-25-2013 7-26-2013 |
- I wish I could open an object from the workspace object list without scrolling the workspace to it. |
3.2 | - Two items on the workspace object list order: ----I'd also like to specify the workspace object list order myself. ----I'd like to be able to preserve the selected order across RW sessions. | |
3.3 | - When you double click on a subbasin in subbasin mgr, it scrolls the workspace. WHY????? | |
Plotting | ||
4.1 | - It would be nice to group plot devices or otherwise organize them. | |
Accounting | ||
5.1 | DEFER | - Object Acct summary needs a splitter DEFER: SEE E-MAIL 8-1-2013 and 8-2-2013 |
5.2 | - Object Acct Summary should start with all accounts selected, not just the first 10. This is very misleading if you forget this. | |
5.3 | 8-6-2013 | - There is no easy way to rename accounts en mass. |
5.4 | 9-8-2013 | - There is no easy way to select account methods en mass. Multiple ACCOUNT Method Selector. |
