Path settings UI
The UI for path settings (Project Settings > Paths, Paths tab) is looking
nice in build 1122, but there are still a few important problems with it:
There is no way (that I can find) to collapse the list of folders inside a
particular content root. This is problematic when you have multiple
content roots.
It is impossible to navigate through the content roots with the keyboard.
There is no way to add modules or content roots with the keyboard.
There is no way to mark folders inside a content root as having a
particular type (i.e. a source folder or a test folder) with the keyboard.
The last two should be easy to fix: just add a mnemonic to each of the
buttons. The first two would not be a problem if a standard Swing JTree was
used instead of the custom component that's there now. Are there any SCRs
for any of these things?
I like the thoughts behind this UI; it just needs a bit more work to be perfect.
Cheers,
Vil.
