A question concerning this menu: do we really have to keep the "Show"
prefix for the different entries? In French, it becomes a bit long.
In the View menu, there is no Show menu for the various panels.
Another question: should we really display the three statistics by
default, or could we skip characters without blanks like LibreOffice
does.
Finally, "Character Count (Incl. Blanks)" can be simplified to
"Character Count" IMO.
Do as you see fit.
I did, but I have more questions now.
1/ the word/char checkboxes, would "Count Words" be clearer than "Word
Count" ? (I think about themes where checkbox is not visible when off)
2/ we have to settle on wording:
statusbar: Characters (No Blanks)
statusbar menu: Character Count (Without Blanks)
statistics dialog: %1$d characters (excluding blanks)
So, native English speakers, what is the right way to convey that we
do not count blanks?
3/ The contextual menu is a weird merge of what LibreOffice and MS
Office do:
* LO: each element has its menu, the zoom menu has example values to
set (fit width, fit page, 50%, 75%, etc.), no way to tell which
statistics should be there
* MSO: only one menu with checkboxes to indicate which elements
should be shown, no way to tell which statistics should be there, no way
to set zoom from menu
* LyX one menu that does both selection of elements and zooming, zoom
in/out and reset to default (main use IMO is to learn shortcuts),
weird-looking precomputed zoom values
I understand that splitting the menu would make zoom menu unavailable
when both count and slider are off; some solution would be needed if
splitting the menus. OTOH I am not sure that the zoom menu is useful,
except maybe for the reset to default, which is not available via a
mouse click. In this respect, I like the Firefox approach, where
clicking on the zoom indicator resets zoom to default.
So as you can see, lots of small questions.
