Description
(This might be more appropriate to post in Discussions, but they are disabled here.)
The plugin panel has a dropdown list with Templates
and ANSI-characters
items.
When selecting the second item, ANSI-characters are displayed, which is logical and expected. When selecting the first item, CSS and HTML "folders" are displayed, which can be assumed from the item selected above, are Templates. However, this is not so (I will explain now). The context menu of this type of panel displays:
Insert
Add…
Edit…
Delete…
Duplicate…
—
Add from selection…
Add from clipboard…
—
Move up…
Move down…
When selecting items from the first part of the context menu, what appears are not the Templates
creation windows, and not even the "folder" (Languages) creation windows for Templates
, but snippets:
I suggest choosing one of the options to eliminate the ambiguity of the interface logic:
- Rename the
Edit Snippet
,Snippet
(i.e.Delete Snippet
) andSnippets
(i.e.Duplicate Snippet
) windows toEdit Template
,Delete Template
andDuplicate Template
or - Rename the
Templates
tab toSnippets
,Snippet
toDelete Snippet
, andSnippets
toDuplicate Snippet
or - For the "folders" list, replace
Add…
,Edit…
,Delete…
andDuplicate…
withAdd Language
,Edit Language
,Delete Language
andDuplicate Language
(respectively) or change their behavior to the appropriate one or - Something else that will remove the interface confusion with the terms
templates
,snippets
and the nature of snippet folders.
