I am wary of asking the devs to add another layer of complexity to the interface. Every method of allowing users to customize their interface adds: complexity, new points of failure, another aspect new users will have to learn, and more features that fewer people will care for.
I hope the devs continue to do as they have: add underlying functions and utility and keep it reasonably simple. I believe they have done a remarkable job, and that their results are proof that their intuitions are very good. I hope they do not add layers of UI complexity. I should add that I am a long time but relatively unsophisticated darktable user. Perhaps I am wrong in my vision here. I would welcome any correction about my opinion from devs or more sophisticated users who know the interface programming that underlies the UI of darktable. >>>>>>>>But, why not allow the user to create a tab with aliases to the original modules, which would never be altered whatever the alias tab displays ? When the user needs to see what is really happening, he goes back to the main tab, and when he wants to work according to his taste, he uses his alias tab.>>>>> ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
