Re: [Inkscape-devel] NEW: Lots of stuff

2008/9/25 Ted Gould :

 * Added a focus mode activated by Shift+F11.  The goal of this
   mode is to remove all toolbars for a short period so that you
   maximize screen area.  Useful on small screens.  Also when you
   know lots of shortcuts.

Regarding this one. If we *absolutely* want to have two separate commands that temporarily clean up screen space in different ways, then at least we should

1) try to make them similar, like F12 and Shift+F12; 2) make both of them available from View menu.

IMHO, if the intention is to maximize screen area on small screens (eee pc and the like), then the command should remove all dialogs too. I really can't think of a reason why someone would want toolbars to go away and keep (docked) dialogs around, when in Inkscape vertical space is a *lot* less used then horizontal space (Filter Effects dialog makes me itch :))

Just my 0.02$CURRENCY
