832 - Favorite tools bugs and issues

#1 Post by Dreamer » 05.11.2020, 19:22

Favorite tools dialog is not very user friendly, some operations are not easy, user must move items again and again, in some cases it could be hundreds of clicks.

1. Focus is changed to first item if one of these options are used: new item, duplicate, delete item.

2. If new category is created, it's not added below actual position, but below first item.

3. Categories are not sorted correctly in menu, they are on top, but they belong to some items - in toolbar they are places correctly.

4. If item A is created and moved, then item B is created, position of item A is lost.

5. Moving items within the same toolbar is not possible, it's quite annoying when moving multiple items to subcategory, especially if items have parameters and custom icons.

Thanks, 8323 results:

1. Fixed for new item, duplicate and delete, but not always, e.g. when I scroll down, click 1st or 2nd item from bottom, create duplicate and delete, focus is changed to 1st item.
1b. Not fixed at all for new item, duplicate and delete for items inside a category, focus is changed to first item always.
2. Fixed, just focus is changed to first item.
3. Fixed.
4. Fixed.
5. Items can be moved to/from category now, thanks.

6. NEW - Arrow signs for categories in button menu list are black, when using dark color scheme, in toolbar they are white, I think they all should be white - black color in main toolbar is used only if the option is unavailable - not clickable. (created new topic for this one)
7. NEW suggestion - If using any button, mouse wheel to scroll doesn't work, I have to click some item first, perhaps the focus could be switched to items panel after using buttons, if possible.

1b. Not fixed at all for new item, duplicate and delete for items inside a category, focus is changed to first item always.
Not to reproduce for me. Focus is always on new item (new, duplicate) or on the next item (delete).
2. Fixed, just focus is changed to first item.
For me focus is always on new category.
5. Items can be moved to/from category now, thanks.
I have made no changes for 5. It worked for me ok all the time.
7. NEW suggestion - If using any button, mouse wheel to scroll doesn't work, I have to click some item first, perhaps the focus could be switched to items panel after using buttons, if possible.
I can always use the mouse wheel for scroll.

Maybe you can send me your fav.ini file so I can reproduce the problems.

1+1b+2. I'm sorry, focus is on the right item, but position/scrollbar is wrong, actual item is off the panel, create more items, 50+ and the category with 5 items at bottom.

5. I think I tried it with drag&drop only before, not with the buttons, I didn't expect that it would move the item also to/from category.

7. Just to be sure - I mean the items panel (below the Toolbars panel), create many items there, scrollbar must be visible.
It's also with default settings, when I click any item and delete it, wheel works, but if I click to Name field and click Delete button, wheel doesn't work.
If I click to any item and click the [+] button to create new item, wheel doesn't work, focus is on the Name field.
As I said, it's not a bug and I'm not sure it it's possible, for New item or category the focus is changed to Name field, which is useful, I'm not sure if it's possible to activate the scrolling in the items panel, possibly it's Windows or mouse related - and it's not so important, I needed it mainly for the other bugs, when position was/is changed to top after some actions and I wanted to go to new item.

In 8324 1+1b+2 are partly fixed, especially items inside category, not fixed in some cases:

First, create about 40+ items, last 4 items should be: 1 item, 1 category with 5 subitems, 1 item, 1 category with 5 items, then create items as below after clicking the last item (while 1 category and 5 subitems are below that item).

- Create new item or separator or text as a second item from bottom and delete this item immediately, scrollbar position is moved to top.
- Create new category as a second item from bottom - scrollbar moved to top, then delete this category, scrollbar position is moved to top again.
- While you're inside the last category, subitem selected, create new category, it's created below, as the last item, but scrollbar position is move to top.

Everything looks fixed in 8327, except #7 probably it's a mouse/win behavior, option, it's not so important, after clicking any item in panel wheel work.

#8
- create any category and assign a custom icon for it, close and reopen fav tools dialog
- now create a new category anywhere
= new category has the same icon as first category in the list (in dialog only), after closing and reopening dialog it's OK
