tab icons
« on: December 05, 2006, 05:50:06 am »
Hi together,

I'm new in EA and after my first period working with EA and having several tabs open i think you can loose the overview over the opened tabs in the main frame. especially if there are several tabs with the identical name (see screen shot).
I suggest to add a little icon to every tab like in the project browser. So you're able to navigate with really one single click to the right tab/diagram.
Here an example for tab icons:



So long, what do you think about it?!

Looks like a good idea...

Yes, I think so too.
No, you can't have it!

Absolutely brilliant!  

I probably bang about between tabs several hundred times a day.  Most, if not all my models consist of different scenarios (actually facets) of the same structures, all having the "same" name.

This would be a huge leap forward.

Me too!

What do you expect with a moniker of sargasso?

You've brought it on yourself...  Don't expect any sympathy...  I bet you still made a motza!
