Multi View suggestions

[alan_federman]

1.30 is great. Here are some comment about multi-view.

1. the ammount of windows should be limited to about 6. Currently you can split windows infinitely.

2. You should be able to open and close windows one at a time without having to close all windows.

3. Either no text or text in each window describing the view.

4. Script commands to open and close multi-view windows.


Thank you development team.

1.30 is great. Here are some comment about multi-view.

1. the ammount of windows should be limited to about 6. Currently you can split windows infinitely.

Why? At least in Europe we are always folding in a certain responsability of the user;-).
Selden named applications with 11 views or so, for example. Eventually, everyone will be running out of CPU power faaaaaar below infinity;-).

2. You should be able to open and close windows one at a time without having to close all windows.

This is incorporated in the latest preview version and CVS, respectively.

3. Either no text or text in each window describing the view.

Why? The displayed text either refers to all views or adapts to the active view. In any case it seems to make sense to me...
Having text in each window would make things definitely too crowded.

4. Script commands to open and close multi-view windows.

OK.
