[Usability] Re: [Fwd: Re: Your final comments on gswitchit in 2.4...]



Hi all

Ugh, there was a day yesterday in these mailing lists... Great thanks to
everybody for participating (though I am not saying "everybody's at
ease":). I hope now, when we've almost finished the discussion of the
way gswitchit should look and feel - we'll solve fast all the remaining
little question, won't we?:)

Just to show the way it looks now:

http://gswitchit.sourceforge.net/newxkb.png

There is now "Show advanced keyboard parameters" toggle button which
effectively turns on/off tabs "Options 1/2" (again, better names for
them are welcome).

As I promised, "Group Shift/Lock behavior" is moved to the first tab.

All changes are in CVS, new button should be working properly.

So these should be all changes people asked me about in relation to this
capplet, shouldn't they? The only open question for this capplet is
whether keyboard preview is neccessary (though this question is not
really vital - I can hide the button at any point and users will not
know).

About the gswitchit properties (flags etc.):

I'll take the wording "Available for keyboard switching" instead of
"Secondary". This will be changed tomorrow or something. The only
question remaining (well, almost resolved) is about flag chooser. Do we
skip support for XFree < 4.3.0 (which I'd be happy to do) and remove
flag chooser - or support earlier versions of XFree and leave it there?
I would vote for the first option (and if noone says "No" - this will be
done tomorrow). In either case, the option "Use layout ID as label"
(better wording anyone?) will be added (and selected by default).

Cheers,
