another thing that disturbed me was that i now had no generic place to put stuff which i didn't want to have in my face all the time.. how about a place called "Recent" ? Places > Recent. e.g. Applications could offer it for File>Open Recent. or you could select it in the gtk-file-chooser thingy e.g. on "import" or "open" in just about any application. Imagine: you just downloaded a .gif from a website, now you opened the GIMP and you want to open the file in the GIMP (that's how many people do it): you don't even have to remember anymore, where you dropped it to! just find the recently downloaded, received or created object in Places>Recent, select it, click open. In this case, Places>Recent would need to be forgetful, dumping its content into Places>Archive after a while (or when it's getting crowded.. for v2.0 ;) )
thanks so much for the link to the board project in your previous mail!!! |
