*Maximize productivity* Almost forget that there is a menu-bar. Use the mouse/touchpad lesser. *Intent driven rather than hierarchy driven navigation* Focus on 'what' rather than 'how'. *Discover functionality* For new users *Help transition* From proprietary software. "What is 'smth' in GIMP?" What key combination activates that? Shift + ? Also, do you have a public Git repo or something? We do now - https://github.com/ssvz4/tito why not extend that with more keywords, or even the > documentation for searching (to find the right command, > or to look up documentation). Definitely planning to do that GIMP is a tool for working fast. True. We're thinking adaptive results. So a beginner might search for "delete" or "ellipse", while an experienced user will not. Results should (will) be ordered by frequency of usage. (Or a more appropriate adapting technique) Is it a plugin or is it hacked into gimp core? Hacked in... Talking of improvements, we're thinking of regex, adaption, vocabulary, auto-complete, hierarchy based search, etc. On Fri, Mar 9, 2012 at 10:30 PM, peter sikking <pe...@mmiworks.net> wrote: > Srihari Sriraman wrote: > > > We now have it up and working. > > Still looking to implement loads of features... > > Do pool in suggestions! > > http://youtu.be/hGAgG_XRhHc?hd=1 > > being part of the GIMP UI design team, I have to ask: > > can you give a statement what this is suppose to achieve. > > I can see the value in having searchable all the tooltip text > and have that mapped to obscure plugins, to find them. > and why not extend that with more keywords, or even the > documentation for searching (to find the right command, > or to look up documentation). > > but doing a delete? the Delete key is a hell of a lot faster for that. > > doing a ellipse selection? click on the tool icon. > > all this typing, then scrolling, is a very slow way of doing that. > and GIMP is a tool for working fast. > > --ps > > founder + principal interaction architect > man + machine interface works > > http://blog.mmiworks.net: on interaction architecture > > > > _______________________________________________ > gimp-developer-list mailing list > gimp-developer-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list > -- * * *Regards, * *Srihari Sriraman *
