RE: [platform-ui-dev] Window/page/perspective rework
|
Scott,
I suspect you're not the only one who prefers the button. We'll consider
adding it back.
For opening new windows, use Window / New Window, then switch the
perspective.
Our preference is to decouple the action of opening a window (creating a
new working context) from switching the perspective (choosing which layout
you want for your working context, which may change).
Does this work for you?
Nick

Subject: RE: [platform-ui-dev] Window/page/perspective rework
Well, I've gotta comment...
I for one, really miss two things:
1) The little icon at the top of the perspective bar that let you quickly
"switch to". I don't like having to go to the Perspective menu and choose
"Change to". Can we have the icon back?
2) I *really* want the "open in a new window" option back. I *vastly*
prefer
to have separate windows for each perspective, as I like to navigate
between
them with the keyboard (I have an office keyboard with an "application
left/right" key that does pretty much what alt-tab and alt-shift tab do
w/o
showing the little window, and I really like using it ;)
