Dockable forms #327

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Make about everything dockable (map list, ...) rather than a popup that claims 
all the focus.

How would a dockable map list help? The map list (and particle list, etc) is 
intended to be a one-shot selection list. If it were to remain open and you 
were to select something else, it would just end up opening another map. 
Doesn't sound very helpful to me.

If you want to open a bunch of maps, it's so much easier/faster to just double 
click on items in the list rather than having to go to file > open map > wait 
for the db queries (why so many and not just one btw?) > select the map you want

In the SVO editor we have it, I always use that instead of the default map open 
dialog.

I'm going to reject this for now, but feel free to bring it up in the forums 
and get other's opinion on it. I like how it is now because it closer 
represents a "file open" dialog.

The map loading & db queries should not take long at all. If it does, it sounds 
like a separate, real issue.
