Hi, I like the idea of having to toggle the "setup" mode to on for dragging buttons to the sound panel. That would restore the way it used to work (as far as being able to ensure that the sound panel is only setup when you want it to be), while still allowing for the D&D to the panel.
Just to add my $0.02 to the drag and drop discussion, personally I love the new drag and drop feature, although I can see a good argument for being able to turn it off or on in rdadmin. Having come from using OS/2 as a primary desktop OS for the last 20 years where drag and drop is pretty consistent across the OS and native applications, I have always felt that many applications and the GUI in Linux (and Windows for that matter - where drag and drop is much less consistently implemented) feel like a step backwards. Admittedly the GUI is still one of the primary reasons I keep OS/2 (now eComStation) running on my home desktop computer. One other question about the new version. I love how it is possible to turn on / off (or set to 'previous' mode) the "show first 100 matches" option in rdlibrary through the "limit searches" setting in rdadmin. I've noticed that it appears this setting only extends to rdlibrary. Is there an equivalent setting in rdadmin for the other Select Cart boxes (the box that pops up when you hit "ADD" in rdlibrary, rdlogedit, rdcartslots, etc)? If there is such a setting I've missed it. And if there isn't, any possibility of adding the same toggle switch to the Cart Select box? As always, thanks for all your hard work!
