Er, yeah, right. It's got to be the most ridiculous GUI ever!
It really hasn't made up its mind at all about what it's trying to be.
What were they trying to achieve by separating the menu and the videos out like that?
Presumably they were trying to simulate the Mac way of doing it, but the result is
just bizarre.
And the drag-and-drop is totally enfuriating. The windows themselves do support
drag-and-drop but nothing seems to actually happen when you do it. The only way to use
drag-and-drop to get it to open a video clip is to drag it into the menu "window".
That's hardly normal.
I don't think there's any Amiga software that behaves like that. I think you'd have
trouble dragging objects onto the amiga menus!
