<div>Hi Meik,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
<p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm">the draft looks great (nice example BTW ;) )! Basically I would really love to see something like this. The devs of Rstudio have put in a similar position and I think they did it for a good reason.</p>
<p lang="en-US" style="margin-bottom: 0cm">But I think it is also a matter of the use case. The placement of the figure is good for small plots and preliminary investigations. I prefer to use the size of the entire window (which involves switching to the separate window of course) with splitting and so on. Do you think is it possible to have a button which can switch between the two states.</p>
</div>
<div>"the most "difficult" decision is where to put the menu entries. in the draft<br/>
the graphics device has focus and its menu entries completely replaced the<br/>
usually available menu. but maybe the normal menu should simply be added to,<br/>
and not being replaced?"</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think the visual feedback of the focus lost is ok as is in theory. I wouldn't add it. But again ini Rstudio they have it in proximity to the plot.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
<div>"also, if there were more graphics devices active, you'd probably need tabs in<br/>
that section, too. alternatively, the "graphics devices" button could work as<br/>
a tab (i.e., be called "graphics device #1" instead and be added more bottons<br/>
for additional devices)."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>That is a tricky one. The interface is quite tabbed already. I have no real opinion on this ... .</div>
<div>Did you check how they are doing it in Rstudio?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Kind regards</div>

<b>Betreff:</b> [rkward-devel] first draft/proposal: new graphics devices section</div>
<div name="quoted-content">hi,<br/>
<br/>
a while ago, we were discussing the possible inclusion of the graphics devices<br/>
somewhere into the main window of RKWard, instead of (or in addition to)<br/>
opening it in a separate window.<br/>
<br/>
i made a first draft of how this could look like:<br/>

what do you think?<br/>
