#5125: Screen preflet layout enhancement --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: humdinger | Owner: axeld Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Preferences/Screen | Version: R1/Development Keywords: mockup | Blockedby: Platform: All | Blocking: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- This is r43660. After seeing ticket #5112, I wondered, where to provide this EDID and driver information. While the current monitor representation is nice and all, it's not really providing vital information. In my mockup, I therefore removed it and replaced it with simple text. Maybe there's more to show, but this is all information I currently get. [[Image(Screen_pref.png)]] I'd also be nice to have a more intuitive way to set the workspaces layout. The idea is to use something like a when inserting spreadsheet- table in a word-processor. Clicking the "4 x 1" pop-up menu will show a representation of the current workspace layout. Tracking the mouse, the user chooses rows and columns.[[BR]] Like this, for a 4 x 2 setting: [[Image(Background_layout.png)]] -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/5125> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
