Description allanwind 2004-03-06 17:54:00 UTC 
Insert (Menu) -> Indexes and Tables (Menu) -> Index and Tables (Menu) -> Entries
(Tab).  I totally missed that the middle part of the form depends on what
structural element you select.  There is no visual clues.  And it does not
change for E# and E, but has crucial presentational information (for me) when
you click on T.

->allanwind: Can you propose something more intuitive so that we have an idea
how to make this dialog better?
Comment 3 allanwind 2004-08-18 16:05:53 UTC 
Perhaps adding '...' to the button, or better convert it to a tabbed menu if all
the information can on be on the screen at once.

Please see issue 91231 in which I give some suggestions for a more intuitive
dialog. The issue was closed summarily, but I think I gave some very helpful
comments. I would really like to see usability improved.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
