Thanks for writing this down. I will say that there is some inherent tension between this feature and the 'Application Menus' feature, which is about simplifying menubars and moving the remaining items to the appmenu in the shell. Can't have smart help search in the menus if you don't have menus anymore... So maybe we need to figure out how we can provide better help in applications that don't have menus in their window - current examples are gnome-contacts and gnome-documents. Pop up a help search window when the user hits '?' ? Maybe... Other ideas ? _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
