2. "External Tools" settings view is not the right name. Action<br>
performed by this view will be processed at end of queue. So for me<br>
the term is not enough explicit for end users. I'm sure that nobody<br>
will understand as well the purpose of this view. This is why it must<br>
be renamed, and some tips must be written in a label in this view to<br>
explain what's end users can do with it.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I will glad to rename 'external tools', but I have a trouble with new name... If I undestood right you suggested to rename it to "External View"? </div>
<div>When I selects the name I was inspired by Kate plugin "external tools", you can look at it in couple of first images:</div><div><a href="https://www.google.ru/search?q=kate+external+tools&newwindow=1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=hm2IUqWhIKaK4AS2mIDIAg&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1866&bih=1038&dpr=0.9#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=vSs6YDHs_uZJQM%3A%3B7jElwIRntJX6AM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.tuxmachines.org%252Fimages%252Fgfkate%252Fkate2.png%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.tuxmachines.org%252Fnode%252F13762%3B888%3B691">https://www.google.ru/search?q=kate+external+tools&newwindow=1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=hm2IUqWhIKaK4AS2mIDIAg&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1866&bih=1038&dpr=0.9#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=vSs6YDHs_uZJQM%3A%3B7jElwIRntJX6AM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.tuxmachines.org%252Fimages%252Fgfkate%252Fkate2.png%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.tuxmachines.org%252Fnode%252F13762%3B888%3B691</a></div>

3. ... The program, can be a binary or a script. In<br>
this view you force to use a script, by default as bash. And what's<br>
about Windows where Batch shell script are used. In other words, you<br>
need to write a GUI more universal where these information must be<br>
show :<br>
<br>
- the path to the Program<br>
- the name of the Program<br>
- the description of the Program<br>
- the arguments to pass to the Program.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>ok</div><div> </div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">

wrong, scripts will be hosted as external file in home directory.<br>
Right ?...<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Some times it is too complex to host very simple script outside of 'usage point'. I think when I implement previous feature we will return to this :)</div><div> </div>

and ready to use. User will assign one Program to the queue, and that<br>
all. The list can be stored in workflow XML file. Look how i do with<br>
workflow list view (workflow name + description are displayed)...<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I can't understand... GUI already have a combobox to select a name from available items...</div><div> </div><div><div>
>> What's the purpose of "Show in Context Menu" option ? Which menu is patched by your implementation ?</div></div><div><br></div><div>The 'Edit' menu, near 'rename', and the DigikamImageView context menu, near 'rename'. I have done an ugly hack to get contexmenu updated from my GUI - I need help/explanation with right sollution.</div>
<div>I think 'Show in Context Menu' is good feature - user can create custom postprocessing action and assign in to shortcut(Ctrl+Alt+A to archive all selected files).</div><div><br></div><div> </div></div><br></div>
