Enhance feature: Measurement menu enhancements (easy)
The user experience with Valentina Measurements could use some improvement.
To improve understanding of Measurement actions, split Create/Edit into two separate actions. Rearrange/rename the Valentina Measurements menu to this order:
(updated)
- New
- Edit
- Sync
- Load Individual
- Load Multi-size
- Unload
- Variables Table

repo owner Rename 'Show' to 'Edit'. This is where measurements are edited.
Maybe better to 'Edit current'?
-
repo owner Combine 'Load Individual' and 'Load Standard' to 'Load/Select'. Open a dialog box to choose 'Individual' or 'Standard'. Then open the choose file dialog with correct folder.
Strange decision. In normal application user select one option and select filter: individual or standard measurements. But i did not do this way because of path to standard measurements. So in this form i don't like this idea. Not elegant.

reporter Agree, 'Edit current'
Agree, leave 'Load Individual' and 'Load Standard' , and place 'current' options together.

reporter Many GUI designers believe that grouping similar actions together is the elegant solution, with further options provided to the user in a submenu. So 'Elegance' depends on whether you analyze an application from a User perspective or from a Programming perspective. These two perspectives are usually in conflict.

repo owner How about this:
New
Edit Current
Unload Current
Load Individual
Load Multisize
SyncYou missed Variables Table. And also i don't like first option New. What if user want edit existing, but not connected to a pattern? Maybe better Open Tape with tooltip "Call Tape for creating or editing measurements".

As i remember 'Create/Edit' was your idea.:) But i agree. 'New' is better.
