[Bug 1678620] Re: Fast Panorama preview: regroup checkboxes and image numbers in "displayed images" section
The checkboxes were only used on Mac, Windows and GTK+ are using toggle
buttons (for historic reason, older wxWidgets version did not support
these controls on Mac). The toggle buttons are now with wxWidgets 3.x
also supported on Mac. So I removed the checkboxes on Mac. This should
reduce the confusion.

Title:
Fast Panorama preview: regroup checkboxes and image numbers in
"displayed images" section
Status in Hugin:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
The Fast Panorama preview window has a "displayed images" section in
all tabs which looks like this:
[All] [None] [x] 0 [x] 1 [x] 2
So now image numbers are centered between two checkboxes (or was it
one checkbox between two image numbers? This makes me feel dizzy...)
which can puzzle new users and still me, too. Also projects containing
a larger number of photos will soon show a horizontal scroll line
which makes managing those images cumbersome.
I will now focus on the Move/Drag tab since this even needs to show
two rows of checkboxes if one of the "single" drag modes is selected.
The following examples show how I think this section could be
organized in a better way: please group (one or two, depending on the
drag mode) checkboxes and their respective image number in one column
like this:
show | Image #: 0 1 2 3 4
[All ] | display: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
[None] | move: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Now a much larger number of images can be shown in one row without the
need of scrolling horizontally.
Please notice my two informative labels 'display:' and 'move:' (or
drag?) left of the checkboxes of image 0 (only needed if drag mode is
enabled).
This can be even thought further:
If the user selects "Group by: Stacks" in Photos tab -> switch "displayed images" section to show stack numbers instead of image numbers to further reduce the amount of checkboxes in this area:
show | Stack #: S0 S1 S2 S3 S4
[All ] | display: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
[None] | move: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Here I changed the row description ("Stack #:" is shown instead of
"Image #:") and also added a 'S' to make clear that these are stack
numbers instead of image numbers.
