I have no idea what a "shortcut" is. If you don't put it on the screen, many users won't find it. This is why the options menu is now in the action bar and why context menus are waning in popularity. Even gestures are troublesome if there's no visual cue to suggest that some sort of swipe is possible and will have an effect. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.6 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
