Here are some stuff I tested:
- New preferences system: basically the core prefs have now been separated from the gui prefs and there is a new submenu for this
I like this. I notice two minor things: -Path preferences get saved and work but are not displayed on the Path dialog or in the Help Browser. -The Log level is not saved in the pref file.
We'll check this.
- The Font dialog can now only be opened when a canvas or Pd window is active as it has no effect on dialogs. Focus handling was also improved.
I guess it's harmless but when focus is on Pd window the Font dialog sill opens but has no effect (or I fail to see it)
I did disable that but someone wanted it back. It has no effect on the Pd window.
I really like the keyboard availability for the Browser. I notice two minor things again (now I think I'm just whining):
-MOUSE | KEYS: Entering a directory kinda destroys and creates the windows making a visual burst, like [;pd-foo vis 0, vis 1(.
I was trying to make this better this but looks like my "fix" made things worse.
KEYS:
- Going back from a sub item (Pure Data/1.manual/1.introduction.txt) to its parent (1.manual) doesn't delete the new created column. It is confusing. It does delete the new column when you go 2 steps back, and it does so without the visual burst.
This may or may not be possible easily. we'll see.
- The first item that appears when entering a new directory for the first time is selected with a squared box, but it's not selected in blue, which is confusing because selection actually does takes place (i.e., if the item is not a directory, hitting the 'right' arrow will open it)
I'm looking into changing the highlight colors on inactive boxes so they are grey.
