come on doru you can have a design in mind if user has to think all the time this means
that the design does not work.
"Ok I should not use the contextual menu for this task" repeat after me and
breath.....
And now I have to learn by heart
It is not. When I want to interact with a model I have to click somewhere on a bar while
the list is in another place
In fact this is remote distributed object-orientation.
Well we can find all kind of good reasons. But at the end on mac there is a plus and minus
**Related to the list** not on the other side of the pane.
So adding and removing a model should not be at the other end of the pane.

I actually
agree with steph.
I do not.
The two menus might seem like an added facility
but I believe they are confusing,
e.g. why is there two options to import from MSE? Are they equivalent or not?
(probably not since one is in the model conext menu, but then what does it do?)
You cannot expect to use a tool without considering at all how it is designed.
The design of the Moose UI is uniform and object oriented when you click on something it
concerns that something
http://www.themoosebook.org/book/externals/ui/entity So, the two are not the same. The global one will
create a model, while the contextual one will populate the current model.
yeah sure. Now I have to always remember ok I should not use the contextual menu.
Now, I do agree that some of the menu items should be
eliminated, and I think that the import from the model menu is one candidate.
I do not even understand what you are saying on this one.
I would also
suggest a more traditional menubar above the models output instead of the buttons that are
on the top right of the window.
For newcomers, they are likely to be ignored because this is where one usually finds
iconify/maximize/close buttons
The design is intentional and again has to do with uniformity in Glamour: the actions for
a certain presentation/browser can be found on the top-right regardless of whether this is
in a top window or embedded in some pane. just my 2c
Thanks :)
Cheers,
Doru

Hi Stef,
I do not understand what this issue is about. Could you be more
specific?
Cheers,
Doru

https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev Hi
why do I have action in menus and action in toolbar?
Why as a user I have to remember where to look?
Stef
