Application menu tray of the application #15

Open yugeshk opened 6 years ago

yugeshk commented 6 years ago

Some applications in linux also have an Application Menu tray (Top left corner) with some features that are rarely used but are required so put there. Two UI decisions here -

  1. Do we want to have it there or do we want to have all options under the main application alone?
  2. If so what should be put there. (Probably things like Key split? I don't know how frequently that is required, for example.)

I would appreciate other opinions on this - because I haven't been using gpg for a very long time.

Low-priority imo. Definitely is useful once basic functionality is setup.

@yugeshk you cannot do this project properly, unless you understand well egpg. This is a requirement. Actually this is the first task that I have assigned you: https://github.com/EasyGnuPG/ggpg/issues/1 , which is also a subtask of the first milestone: https://github.com/EasyGnuPG/ggpg/issues/7

@dashohoxha I have been using egpg, but it is understandable that I am fairly new to it compared to someone who's been using it for sometime and knows what he uses more often and what not. Either way, I was just keeping this thread open because this is one of the decisions that will have to be made in the coming weeks. The task at hand is obviously #7 and I'm working on it at the moment.

@sourabhtk37 okay. that's reasonable.

@yugeshk more often than not, it is not a matter of making decisions. You simply try several alternatives and see which one works best. You can follow the same approach here as well.
