Hi, all; I asked myself:
"Why does the operator panel appear in the tool shelf although the operator has been called from the properties sidebar ?" At least on a large display that can be really far far away :) I have an idea for the case where an operator is called by click on a button from within a Panel: Add a panel option to specify where the operator panel shall show up: - Bottom of Tool Shelf (default) - Bottom of Properties sidebar - Bottom of current window (tool shelf or properties bar, ...) - Directly Below current panel (maybe not a good idea) If the operator was not called from within a panel, then fallback to defaults. Regardless of where it appears, the operator panel disappears when the next operator is called. Benefits: - Operator options can appear very near to where the operator was called, thus get much more awareness - less moving around on large screens to change operator options. Drawbacks: - operator panel no longer appears at one fixed location However letting the operator panel appear close to our current focus of work could possibly be more beneficial than relying on operator options to always appear in the lower left corner of the screen. What do you think about that ? -gaia- _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
