Remove add-ins from Addins menu #2115

Open dmurdoch opened 6 years ago

dmurdoch commented 6 years ago

This is an enhancement request, similar to issue #2073 but for add-ins rather than templates.

I have a lot of packages installed, and half a dozen of them register add-ins, so my Addins menu is getting kind of crowded. I don't use all of the add-ins, so I'd like a way to limit that menu to just the ones that interest me.

I'd still keep the full list in the Tools | Addins | Browse addins.. dialog; that's probably where I'd add a checkbox on each one for whether the add-in should be shown in the toolbar menu.

Our hope was that making addins easily searchable within the dropdown menu would help obviate the need to explicitly include / exclude certain classes of addins. Is that sufficient in your case, or would you still prefer to have the ability to explicitly include / exclude addins?

For my purposes, there are only 3 addins that I use, but I use them very frequently. So it would be great if I could only display the 3 addins that are relevant to me.

Curation of add-ins (or "favorites" of some stripe) definitely seems like it would be useful! Another idea would be a different display mechanism for add-ins (i.e. if you think about Browser "Bookmarks" and how they can be added into the toolbar, etc.)
