[Grecipe-manager-devel] New Recipe Card layout idea

[Thomas M. H. <tmh...@gm...>]

Hi all -- I've put together a new layout for the recipe card and would
love thoughts/comments:

http://grecipe-manager.sourceforge.net/new_rec_card.png

The idea of the new design is to make ingredients always visible. Some
cookbooks use this layout -- ingredients off to one side -- and I find
that for many recipes, anyway, it's useful to be able to have the
ingredients visible as I read the instructions.

My thought is also to make a few more changes to simplify this.

In particular, the notecard tabs would go away when looking at the
recipe card display view. On the toolbar, there would only be "Add to
shopping list", "Export recipe" and "Edit recipe."

When you click on the "Edit recipe" toggle, the tabs show up as do the
save/revert/undo/redo buttons.

This would involve minimal changes to code, and therefore hopefully
minimal new bugs, but it would simplify the normal interface for
looking at recipes even further.

Any comments or suggestions as always would be appreciated.

Tom
