| Summary | 0001942: General UI improvement suggestions | ||||
| Description | I have a assortment of general UI improvement suggestions which I'll lump together here instead of creating multiple separate issues: - The ESC key should cancel/exit any/all pop up windows. It currently works for some (like the View Input Bindings dialog and in-game ESC menu dialog) but not all the dialogs. Specifically, it doesn't work for the Save Game and Load Game windows, the Manage Players window, the Setings window, and the Reference/Journal/Messages/etc tabbed window. - The Enter key should act like pressing an "OK" or "Accept" button or its dialog-specific equivalent. ie: Pressing Enter in the Save Game, Manage Players or Settings dialogs will accept the current user input and act as if the player presed the Save button. - In the Save Game dialog, it'd be nice if the focus is automatically set to the text box rather than having to click in it first. It would be even better if the remebered filename was also automatically highlighted. (Ie: see the behavior in a standard Windows Save File common dialog box.) - In the Save Game and Load Game windows, the Sort By Date doesn't give any indication if you're already sorting by date and that pressing it will actually cause Sort By Name. Changing the text on the button (or lighting the button) would help. - Also in the Save Game and Load Game windows, mouse wheel support to scroll the file list would be nice - In the Reference Tab, there's a bunch of unused space between the spreadsheet and the page numbers: maybe the spreadsheet could fill this space? In general, it'd be nice if this dialog was bigger to fit more information on a page. | ||||
