Idea on managing tools inside the Foundry window. #97

Open Dariosky-01 opened 3 years ago

Dariosky-01 commented 3 years ago

There may be a small function on the menu that could allow Foundry users to see how the entire view of the Foundry window is currently set up with its tool windows locked as it currently is, or optionally, to window mode, windows that divide the types of tools available and that allow you to position them where you want even having a little help: the sides of these windows should be "magnetic", giving way to position them with great precision, so that if the sides of these come very close they would immediately attack each other automatically (but I hope they act this function very closely).

One could therefore also think of a further function in the upper right part of these internal windows, a button, which does not close the window of course, but changes the position of the small or large windows from vertical to horizontal or vice versa, and those long windows they could also shorten in their height, if placed vertically or in their width if placed horizontally with the use of a scrolling of the mouse, holding down, on the edge of that small side, the left mouse button to allow scrolling. The idea is to open a bit that space on the right that sometimes I personally want, so they could also, all these windows, stay outside the Foundry one, in fact I use two monitors and I could pass them in the second monitor if I turned it on for purposes of space.

The idea was born because the color changes of the levels I saw in the new version, I didn't much like them put right there, and from that problem this idea was born, also for space problems that have never been solved and therefore currently not they can be solved without this idea.

Speaking of the list of errors in the window, it would be good if it did not go down beyond a certain limit preventing the view, but in case of many errors a scroll bar would be created automatically that can also be scrolled with the mouse wheel.

However, I invite you to look at my earlier idea on the subject of errors, I have good ideas from a functional point of view.
