Hi, I've made a screenshot (attached) of the Build Commands dialog using buttons for the menu item labels instead of text entries. This is because:
- It makes it clear that menu labels don't normally need to be
edited. 2. It displays the mnemonic correctly.
Clicking the button can still allow setting the menu item text via a dialog prompt, and there would be a tooltip to say this.
Good idea?
It is an "unusual" UI paradigm so I am not sure ...
Yes. Though I do like the idea, for the same reasons Nick pointed out above, especially 1.
It might have to be tried to see if it improves or damages the ease of use.
ACK.
