Hi,
I was wondering, how do you think would be the best way of handling the
recently opened document list? Currently GNUstep supports the list in
NSDocument based applications, however there is no preferred way of
presenting the list to a user.
It should be:
- separate sub-menu?
Probably not.
- menu entries in the Document menu? (how the NSApplication knows which
menu is the Document menu?)
Possible choice I think.
- list in the open panel?
option 1:
Make the zero column of the browser a virtual folder with
elements:
-- file system
-- home directory
-- removable media
-- recently opened documents
I would prefer just recently browsed places.
- Workspace menu?
Mac OS X has something a bit like that with Apple menu but it is
available whatever application you have in front.
- Workspace "virtual folder"/shelf?
Why not.
- ... ?
A NSStatusItem-like menu (hosted in top screen bar aka "Services bar").
… or other possible variant : "Search" NSStatusItem-like menu (probably
like Spotlight in Tiger) with possibility to add and remove "stored
request" (like virtual folder) in this menu; you could have special
stored requests visible by default like "Recent documents" menu item or
submenu.
May be other ideas will come :-)
Quentin.
