[Jsynthlib-devel] Menu and toolbar question...

[Joe E. <jo...@em...>]

In SDI mode, each library/scene frame gets its own menu and can also
have its own toolbar. I've noticed a few things about this that raise
some UI questions:

1 - All of the toolbars seem to be the same instance. If I have multiple
libraries open with no patches selected in any of them, then the "cut"
and "copy" toolbuttons are greyed. If I select a patch in one of the
frames, the "cut" and "copy" toolbuttons are enabled on *all* of the
windows. Do we want this to happen, or should each frame have its own
toolbar that reflects the state of that frame?

2 - Same thing goes for menus. All frames seem to get a common menu...
even the main app window (which would be the DesktopPane in MDI mode).
This seems a little redundant. Would we want each library to get its own
menu? Are there certain menu items which belong only in the context of a
library/scene frame or in the context of the main app frame? For
example, perhaps cut/copy/paste shouldn't be in the main app frame (only
in library and scene frames) while the "Preferences..." item would be
only available in the main app frame?
