Hello,
I really like the development and directions of the wxGUI!
The recent posts on the GUI got me interested. So I just installed GRASS
7 and can really sense the speed improvements in rendering. I compiles
as easy as GRASS64 / 65 on Ubuntu.
A couple of points / observations:
* What is the "Search" field above the "CMD>" for? It doesn't effect
anything here.
* I would appreciate an CTRL+TAB or alike to switch between layer tree
and output window in the "GIS layer manager".
* The self completing command line is kicking. I could imagine to see
all options of a command when typing it's name but greyed out. When
continue typing, they could become active.
* the completion does at times need a ' ' after the '='
* d.zoom map=elevation_shade does not zoom to the layer extends.
* after adding a new layer group and selecting it, the next layer does
not get automatically added to that group.
only after a layer is shifted in the group and selected, the next layer
will be put into the group.
* There are numerous dialogs which still require to enter the layer name
manually instead of selecting from a list (g.region, r.region).
* as pointed out by the shell geeks, selection of layers from a
location/mapset with many layers could be more effective. Maybe a
incremental search would help.
* Grass Extension manager (Very nice idea!!!) cannot install due to make
errors.
* The output should be reused. E.g. I can list all modules in extension
manager but would then need to manually type the module name into the
next tab.
Many thanks to the brave hearts coding this GUI. It will certainly
broaden the audience. Kepp up.
Bets regards,
Timmie
