  • Ticket #14947 – Description

    initial v1  
    11The following idea is for all menus, not just the drill-down navigational ones used as an example. Currently, if a menu has more items that fit in the screen's vertical resolution, scroll arrows appear at the top and bottom:
    22
    3 [[Image(now.png,100%)]]
     3[[Image(now.png)]]
    44
    55Wouldn't it be much better if instead of the arrows at the top/bottom, they'd be at the right (or left, depending on the position on screen) of the menu:
    66
    7 [[Image(0.png,100%)]]
     7[[Image(0.png)]]
    88
    99When the mouse pointer touches the arrow-bar at the right (or the selection is moved beyond the last entry via cursor key), the next batch of entries appear:
    1010
    11 [[Image(1.png,100%)]]
     11[[Image(1.png)]]
    1212
    1313If there are more entries still, there'd be another arrow-bar on that new menu area. If the mouse leaves that new menu area it'll get folded back, just like the current drill-down navigation.
