[Rhythmbox-devel] Play order UI

["James \"Doc\" Livingston" <doclivingston gmail com>]

G'day everyone,

A while back, Paul Boyd posted a patch to change the play order
selection from shuffle and repeat toggles to a full menu.

I've posted an updated patch (and make it use GtkUIManager), which can
be found at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163196, and a
screenshot is at http://www.flickr.com/photos/doctau/115113425/.


I would like to see this in cvs, as it lets people access the other play
orders that exist, and we might see some of the others that people have
been talking about for a while (like Album Shuffle).

The only potential issue that I can think of is that it removes the play
order buttons from the toolbar. Does anyone think that they change the
play order enough to be worth a toolbar item? If so, I can add it as a
"menu button" on the toolbar, however it is a bit hard to do with
GtkUIManager in a way that works on GTK 2.6 - so I won't bother doing
it, if no-one wants it.


Cheers,

James "Doc" Livingston
