Тут такое дело, как многие уже слышали, DT не против проапгрейдить BGE, поэтомуI decided to collect suggestions from everyone and compile a single message for Sinn,
so that proposals come not from one person, but from everyone at once.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to improve BGE, what to add, what to change, what
throw it away (for me, more than half of the bells and whistles are not needed at all), then wash it for me.
I'm thinking of putting all the proposals together before the new year and sending them to Sinn.
If you think and remember lazily, then read my suggestions below and
tell me what you think about them.
I think there is no need to organize a special forum for this, one at a time is enough
I will answer from everyone.
About little things like:
- display of the disk directory in a small window (as opposed to the EDP full
directory);
- absolute identicalness of all save and load windows (which, to put it mildly, is illogical and
not practiced by anyone) - it is not clear what kind of operation is being performed.
- other hotkeys (perhaps this is just for me :), an inveterate EDP player)
I’m silent, you can get used to it, it’s unlikely that such things will be accepted
seriously, because Some people are used to it this way, others that way, you can’t please everyone here.
I suggest the following:
0. Enter a permanent indicator of the selected color on the panel (it is in the magnifying glass) and
color indicator under the cursor (optionally in colors or numbers).
1. Make sure that the “color” switch affects the scaling of windows, otherwise
it is humanly impossible to enlarge a color sprite, let alone reduce it,I’m ashamed even in front of the art studio.
2. Finally introduce human fill. After all, the existing fill is actually only
only ink fill (or fill), that is, we fill zeros with ones, why not
fill the ones with zeros? That is, making paper and ink equal for filling,
which can also be called xor fill.
3. There is transfer of familiarity from the second screen, but what about transfer of attributes?
4. Automatically remove the toolbar from the screen.
5. Introduce the standard - caps+arrows - discrete movement through familiar places, this
already done in the loop, it is logical to extend this to all instruments, for example
windows, thereby placing them on one icon, if the selected window is not a multiple
divisible by 8 pixels along any axis, then make it inaccessible in the menu
appropriate options. I think it's convenient. It would be convenient to use primitives
enter into familiar places by holding caps, etc.
6. Remove the “exchange” menu item from the “2nd screen”, why is it needed if the screens
equal rights. It’s logical to put the remaining items from this menu in “Overlay”, so
thereby freeing up another icon.
7. Introduce a tool similar to Roll Screen (EDP), it is also called adjust
picture, move picture, etc., implementing its more general case - for a window.
8. Introduce the change color tool, similar to those existing in art studio and edp, with
With its help you can easily repaint the entire picture in any shades.9. Enter an additional pixeling mode in the magnifying glass: if ink=x, paper=y are selected,
and in familiarity it’s the other way around: ink=y, paper=x, then when placing a pixel
automatically swap selected colors. Or as an alternative to this when
presence of indicators from point 0 in the magnifying glass, enter the swap hot button
ink/paper.
I have everything.
Schafft also suggested:
10. Introduce another mode for drawing with a pencil: when the dots do not appear
discontinuously, but are automatically connected to the previous ones, i.e. continuous
pencil.

From Evgeny Goljakov → To Alexander Trofimchuk 6 December 2002
Hello Alexander.
Mon 2 Dec 02 Alexander Trofimchuk -> All:
(-) Recommendation to remove as much as possible absolutely unnecessary features that need to be identified
together, for me there is no need for a regime
such as a ruler or sight coordinates.
(+) Keep a list of the 5 latest drawings as already in BW!
For example, always push them to the beginning of the Load directory
(+) Redefine hot keys
(+) Excellent idea about caps+arrow, then in general there will be more
similar combinations like Additional features
(+) Taking everything I needed from EDP was a long time ago, but it was closer to me
easier to work with. There was Auto Load Last Pic
Thank you for your attention.
