Can any of you think of a reason those menus aren't in a menu group?
I'm sure it is historical, based on 'nix and Windows behaviors which
came first. But...sometimes I need those other menus. For example,
when
I paste styled text into a script editor and I want to make it plain
text, I use the OS menu to set the textfont to "none". Stuff like
that.
So if you move the menus, I'd like to see any relevant OS menus
incorporated.
Now that we have clipboardData I should just modify that to paste only
the text without the style info.
Any others?
Not to be considered as an objection, but if Script Editor menus would
be moved, it would be many moons before I retrain my fingers to move
mouse pointer to the new place. Motor memory, you know :)
Also, if you move Script Editor menus to menubar, I hope at least
command + F would look for TopStack to distinguish what to do because
currently command + F displays very different find dialogs in Script
Editor and in general IDE
When I need to find some variable in script, command + C -> command + F
--> command + V -> enter key sequence is more than motor skill, it's
almost unconditional reflex and I would feel "disabled" without it.
Same goes with command+ G (find again in script editor) as opposed to
command + G (group) in general IDE
