Quickscribe Mini-Menu

Post by mikemcgrath »

What happened to the Quickscribe mini-menu? I just recently DP 7.01.

When I open a Quickscribe notation window I do not see the mini-menu anywhere. I looked it up in the manual and the manual says it should be there. I also downloaded installed the latest update in case that was the problem, but no difference.

Nevermind. I just found it. Upper right corner. Teeny, tiny arrow. That thing is so small! I went from DP 4 staight to DP 7 so I guess I have some things to get used to.

Yep.

I'd posted a response (and deleted it)-- which was really a question--- as to which version it was from which you'd upgraded. The mini menu change from DP 5.x to DP6 was "almost" cruel. As you've observed, the teeny tiny triangle is a lot different from the icon that screamed "mini menu" from before. The thing about DP5.x was that the mini menu was ITSELF an icon. That meant there were no hieroglyphs involved. Now, it's a matter of getting one's head around those triangles, whether they have a circe around them or not.

I sent a suggestion to MOTU to give the option to the user to place it back on the left side (computer screens are getting very wide these days), as well as make the darn icon bigger :!:

Amplidood has made a mod where this looks like a little folder (bigger than the arrow).

Frodo and JLaudon,

Thanks for your replies. Glad I'm not the only one who prefers a bigger mini-menu icon.

Mike
