Hi team, I am sending various items that should be fixed in the usability testing build, IMO. * The current New Wizard, invoked from contextual "New File/Folder..." menu of a project node, lists strange set of templates containing templates and folders like "nb-java-nature", "All Templates" and "Profile Types". I suggest to remove these folders and rename and reorder templates hierarchy this way: [ ] Templates | +--[ ] Folder +--[ ] Java Package +--[ ] Java Classes | | | +-- [ ] Emply Java File | +-- [ ] Java Class | +-- [ ] Java Main Class | +-- [ ] Java Exception | +-- [ ] Java Interface | +-- [ ] JApplet | +-- [ ] Applet | +--[ ] Ant Build Scripts +--[ ] Other * We should remove Filesystems View from the build and do not show Property Sheet by default. The property sheet is very ugly and complicates the first time experience. * Probably move combobox with a build configuration at the beginning of the build toolbar. So the order of components is: Config combo, Build Active Project, Rebuild Active Project, Next Error, Run Active Project * Please reorder the View menu this way: | View | ------------------ Projects Runtime Properties Source Editor Output Window Debugger Window Execution View Web Browser ----separator----- Workspaces ------------------ * "Debug Project" menu item should be renamed to "Debug Active Project". I expect that it works with the active project. * Add current object into quotation marks in the context sensitive build/rebuild main menu item, e.g. Build "HelloWorld" * The IDE doesn't start up with the Projects tab selected. If a test participants are asked to start the IDE, this should be fixed. Thank you, Jano
