Martin, I think that when the user selects the lists &
bullets item in
the toolbar, we don't must to show a dialog box, but
only to create a
list. To do that, we have to split the actual toolbar
item in two
different items (a `list' item and a `bullets' item)
in order to know
the desired list type.
If the user wants to stop the actual list, he only has
to start a new
line and press backspace. For instance, if we have:
* Line 1
* Line 2|
and the user wants to finish the actual list, he has
to press [intro],
and [backspace]
* Line 1
* Line 2 [intro pressed]
* |
-----------------------------------
* Line 1
* Line 2
| [backspace pressed]
(quickier than the actual method...)
If the user wants to change the type of a list, or
change the starting
value, etc. he will have to select the "Lists &
bullets..." item in
the menubar (which will show the lists & bullets
dialog box), and then
change whatever he wants.
What do you think, Martin?
