If you guys think that having initially the list empty is better we could
make it configurable like proposed by Adrian. But I suggest to have a GLOBAL
property to control this so that we have all the UI on an installation
consistent.

Now I have seen that Adrian has started writing a new confluence page that
will summarize all the agreed Layout guidelines in order to have them simply
accessible, thank you Adrian. I think we really need this.
Yes, really helpful, to be completed...
While browsing the thread about the Layout best practices I came across some
other points that were discussed. I would like to remind them to all so the
final decision could be taken and added in the Layout guidelines Confluence
page.
They were:
1) - A Skip menu to access several part of the screen directly
I did it. Could be enhanced : it only skips to main area for now. In my mind it was an option for sight disabled people so it's
invisible for "normal" people.
2) - An help button/icon link. Should we have it always located the same
place?
Yes, I can't see any argument to have it in different places regarding the screen. UI consistency is a must-have, I know you are
concerned Bruno and it's great there are still much work in OFBiz about that point...
Thanks
Jacques
Many thanks,
-Bruno

Well, someone had suggested it during the best practices discussion and no
one objected to it.
