Group operation and their options better #12

Closed peteruithoven closed 9 years ago

So currently users create and select the current operation in the top left. The options for the selected operation then appear bottom left. Understanding this connection can difficult at first.

My suggestion would be to group this better, maybe have a kind of fold-in, fold-out system. Like a accordion menu, but without the forged limit that only one item can be open. operations

So users always see the basic options per operation, like it currently shows the Visible, Combine and Operation options. (I would personally skip Combine here.) Then when the users folds out the operation he sees options like Ramp Plunge, Direction, Cut depth, Margin etc. A extra feature would be that users could use the scrubbers to drag the operations and change the order.

What do you guys think?

Nice! Good detail that u used text for the arrow, that keeps it sharp on screens with a higher dpi.
