Suggestions and Requests / "Show Realized Interfaces" - better UI,
« on: August 24, 2006, 11:17:47 am »
It would be nice if the class context menu item "Add Embedded...Show Realized Interfaces" was more easily used. There are probably other commands in this category - if you address this, I'd look for the other cases too.
1.) Because it's only accessible as a context-menu command, the command can't be accessed from the Customize... UI, so it can't be put on a toolbar or bound to a key. This is probably true of all commands that are on the context menus and not on the toolbar menu.
2.) Keyboard access does not work. Try it. Context-menu-key + B goes straight to a different dialog box, I think because there's no accelerator keys assigned to the rest of the keys in the submenu.
3.) There are a lot of actions that could be applied to multiple objects at once that aren't accessible from the context menu if you multi-select. This is one of them.
Thanks,
