Yes, I agree about direct manipulation via shortcuts or manipulators. But it seems people see buttons and forget the other methods. Give them a mouse, and they forget tab key navigation, and so on. The thread just demostrates it, and so do other points in UI design, people are not informed about something or they forget, and then "new problems" arise. * So I would like to use this thread to advice any teacher or document writer to give extra coverage to the fast methods and not just the obvious ones. GSR *: Worst is if the problem is from creator side and not from user side. I just found the redefinition of toolbar button appearance "because gradients look bad". Consistency, common semantics, mouse motion and clicking optimization, etc... blah, ranting again.
