Hi Rafael, *


[ First: the paragraphs in your mail shows up in my Thunderbird as one long line. Could you pls check if there is some gmail setting curing that :-) Also: If you have the previous mails replying to them each and preferably in-line, helps me spending less time on mail reading and understanding. Which is useful with all that is passing by. thanks ;-) ]

Cor, what actions one needs to select a style for? Unless I'm wrong,
they're only right clicking for context menu (then New..., Modify...
or Delete...), which doesn't require single left click first.

So you suggest to have lift click for applying and right click for selecting and the other actions? Sounds fine :-) On the other hand, what comes to my mind rapidly is that in most cases a user first selects an item in a list-box, and then presses OK (or such), or, alternatively double-clicks... So that at least explains the behaviour. But since we don't have a button 'apply', indeed I know users sometimes are looking around .. ;-)

Apart
from that, about the upper button "New Style from selection", what I
gather is 'selection' here refers to the cursor in the text, not the
style selected in the Stylist.

Correct. "Text at cursor position / selected" is more appropriate - but long...

style selected in the Stylist. If we could indeed use single click to
apply a style, then double-click could be assigned to Modify ('edit
style' dialog), which in my opinion would be a productive boost.

Maybe...
And what about Delete? Leave that in the context menu?
Wondering what others think.

Thanks for your input!

Cor

PS - if at a certain moment we have the feeling that there is not so much input on a question and still are a bit in doubt, it might be an idea to consult e.g the users list ... with a specific question?
