@splittingred,
To me the single click to show resource info and double click and right/command click to show context menu makes most sense. As BobRay has pointed out we need to make it nearly impossible for users to make a mistake. I think multiple actions for the context menu would work if it can be done.
@everyone else. If your comparing Revolution with 096; Revolution does more than 096 could ever do and that requires new terminology and new interfaces and changes that people will find uncomfortable (as I have) but as you play and push and bend and develop workflows you will get to see the difference.
What we can all do to help:
1. Continue to play.
2. Report inconsistinces in the UI here but also if it is broken or really borked it should go in Jira.
3. Offer a reason for your issue other than it wasn’t like that in 096.
4. Suggest one or more solutions--even if they seem wacky. Yes, you might be called crazy but dismissing a crazy solution is better than none.
5. If there is a term you don’t understand first
look here and then
ask here. The development team has named things very accurately and they are not without reason although sometimes it doesn’t make sense until we understand the depth of the terms. They have also compromised where greater understanding resulted.
Don’t be afraid to post statements like: "I really wish when I did x, y would happen"
Don’t be afraid to mock up visually how you think it should look. Fire up your copy of Fireworks, Photoshop, Illustrator or GIMP and edit a cap of the interface to show. Many of us are design folk and we grok pictures.
I’ll be the first to admit that I rejected many of the new terms because it wasn’t mind blowingly obvious from a single dictionary word what it meant. That’s what user guides and documentation is for. I’m finding the love and finding solutions as I play.
Cheers,
Jay
