Thanks for bringing that new feature to my attention Bruce. Somehow I<br>
completely missed that these context menus had been added. Very useful!<br>

Just been having another burst of drawing, and the changes in 5.3.14<br>
XTherion seem like they will be helpful for new users, and maybe educate<br>
some old users as to what options are available for various entities!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I did not think I would use the context menus much, but in fact, although<br>
a bit mouse intensive for my liking, they are often an improvement in<br>
workflow. I no longer have to move cursor from drawing to right-hand menu<br>
area and back to drawing all the time. However typing the names and<br>
options does still provide some mouse relief.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I notice a small anomaly in the context menus for lines of type wall.<br>
<br>
Moonmilk is missing off the bottom of the segment subtype menu.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br></div><div class="">
Also the plurals of stalactite and 'mite are missing from the point<br>
speleothem menus (I manually typed in the plural in the screenshot)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br></div><div class="">
A small suggestion. When the 'type' symbol is changed (from both context<br>
menu and right-hand menu area) all the options (as far as I have noticed)<br>
are reset to their defaults. This is annoying if you accidentally set the<br>
wrong type, set all the options you want, and then correct the type - only<br>
to lose all the options. My preference would be to leave options as they<br>
are, when the type of an entity is changed (except when changing the 'type'<br>
is the first operation after creating a new entity). What do other users<br>
think? This could upset some workflows.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And one more thing: I notice these days the therion command window that<br>
opens during the compilation process stays open and delays access to<br>
Xtherion for about 15 sec or more after the compile has completed. I'm not<br>
sure if this is a 5.3.14 thing, or an old dying Win XP thing. Have only<br>
noticed it since 5.3.14<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Also, people who have integrated Therion activation into Notepad++ will<br>
need to make a small change to accommodate TclTk to 8.6, as I noted on the<br>
wiki a while back.<br>

Hi everybody,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
yesterday I have updated xtherion a little bit. "Edit->Hide inactive<br>
scraps" should work now as well as right clicking on point or line invokes<br>
context menu.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If you have some idea, what else should go to context menu or how items<br>
there should be arranged, please let me know.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For windows users: I have upgraded bundled TclTk to 8.6 (in fact, only 8.5<br>
features were needed), but I had to compile it my self. I hope, there will<br>
be no major issues.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards, S.<br>
