|

|

User Interface:
|
||||
|
||||
- GimpSpinScale will grab focus when starting to edit the entry, and
|
||||
in particular the current number will be fully selected (because
|
||||
often we want to just type down a completely different number
|
||||
accurately). Also when giving focus to the entry with the cursor
|
||||
(middle click), it doesn't click on the scale (i.e. value doesn't
|
||||
change).
|
||||
- GimpSpinScale widget improvements:
|
||||
* The widget will grab focus when starting to edit the entry, and
|
||||
in particular the current number will be fully selected (because
|
||||
often we want to just type down a completely different number
|
||||
accurately).
|
||||
* Also when giving focus to the entry with middle click (from
|
||||
anywhere inside the widget), the scale value doesn't change in the
|
||||
same time anymore.
|
||||
* Finally we can now target-click accurately the entry current value
|
||||
to edit the entry (again, without changing the value and selecting
|
||||
existing number fully) with the main button (usually left button).
|
||||
Even though middle click is simpler because we don't have to be
|
||||
accurate (we can middle-click anywhere in the spin scale widget),
|
||||
it is hardly discoverable, whereas clicking a number entry which
|
||||
is meant to be editable is the most common GUI interaction
|
||||
expectation.
|
||||
* To help feature discoverability, when hovering the widget, the
|
||||
cursor will change and show a "grab" cursor when a click would
|
||||
start an absolute edit (the cursor changes to "grabbing" when
|
||||
actually clicking and dragging the scale) or a "text" cursor when
|
||||
a click would focus the number entry. When Shift key is being
|
||||
hold, the cursor is the one for the relative edit, wherever the
|
||||
position over the widget. This should make discovering possible
|
||||
interactions with the widget a lot easier.
|
||||
- Various improvements in the Layers dockable (and similar tree view
|
||||
widgets):

||||
* The bigger thumbnail popup on long click (e.g. on a layer or mask
