Theme Tab #253

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
When i introduced Quelea to other´s (including theme edit etc.)
i recognized that most of them could not change the default theme afterwards 
without a further enquiry or hints.

Maybe it would be more easy and instinctive to move the theme selection to the 
Database / TAB area. Would this be a big thing to implement?

The problem with moving it to the database area is that it breaks the mental 
model of items in the database being items that can be added to the schedule 
(you can't "add" a theme to the schedule in this sense, so I think this might 
actually cause more confusion.) So I don't think we really want to move it 
there.

However, I will have a think about this one as I agree it should be clearer - 
it's a bit hidden away under that gear icon at the moment (we might try 
something a bit more subtle such as changing the gear icon to something that 
more clearly represents a theme, and go from there.)

Yeah, at least it should be more instinctive to find, the gear icon isn´t that 
easy to encrypt.

From the database point of view, i think a theme / Design set is kind of 
database item, it can´t be added to the schedule, but linked with a "real" 
Database item it can

BTW: It´s cool to see how fast the developement on this project is =)
Just installed the 2014.1 Release Version on our PC and i´m already using the 
2015.0 Nightly for some testing! Can´t wait to see the planned features for 
this release to come alive!

-> You´re awesome!

with the new icon on every song it´s way more easy to find and set up than 
before =)
