[Request]: Have Launch options and Run in Terminal next to Run Executable... #2698

Open Revival8697 opened 1 year ago

Tell us the problem or your need

Currently, when users want to run EXE with launch options or Run in Terminal 1 time, they have to click on the gear icon next to Run Executable... button. Users will have to click on the gear icon again to edit the Launch options and/or Run in Terminal for the next EXE.

Describe the solution you'd like

Remove the gear icon and have the current Launch options box and Run in Terminal checkbox placed next to the Run Executable... button, horizontally.

Other solutions?

None.

Additional context and references

Ref: the current Run Executable... button and the gear icon. Screenshot_20230220_192256 cleaned

@jannuary what are your thoughts on this?

Generally, I'm not to keen on optimizing click count like that — no one is speedrunning our software. If you need to launch apps with specific options frequently, you might want to add them as shortcuts.

I remember there was discussion on whether the "Open in Terminal" option should persist, which might be more sensible
