Description Christopher Beland 2001-09-10 01:18:45 UTC
- The Context pulldown menu in the Shortcuts section is easy for new
   users to miss.  Perhaps a selectable list of some sort would reduce
   confusion.

 - The "Grab" feature under Control Center -> Sawfish -> Shortcuts ->
   Edit is unable to capture double, triple, etc. clicks.  It is not
   intuitively obvious that manually entering "Button1-Click2" is the
   right thing to do.

The "context" menu used to be a list, but it took too much space

it would be hard to make grab support double clicks. It's actually
only intended to support key presses

It need not display the complete list; only perhaps the first five or
so options.  The problem now, I think, it that it doesn't take up
*enough* space.  8)

I suppose there are alternative fixes, but perhaps the best one would
be to actually have documentation for the capplet in general.  (That
would actually help a lot with both problems.)  Someone at Sun was
working on this; I'll see if I can't track them down.
