I want to remove "SP* Properties" dialogs that are listed in the right-click menu of shape objects. Reasons:
- they use technical terms without any explanations and are therefore confusing
- they don't stay on top (I just didn't bother with them, planning to remove them eventually)
- they're very limited (no units, no live update from selection)
- most importantly, they're now completely redundant: if you want access to the raw attributes, use the XML editor; if you want convenient units, explanations, and live update from selection, use the controls bars of the corresponding tools.
So I'd like to know if anyone is really using them, and if so, why and what needs to be done to help these users move away from this ancient remnant to more modern facilities. In other words, is there any unique functionality or convenience in them that I'm failing to see?
