Scalable light table menu

Post by brunesku »

Hi,

here is an idea: how about a scalable light table menu?

I usually have the light table open all the time and in my setup it is taking up a considerable portion of the screen. I know it can be minimized so that the sliders are not visible but i would enjoy if it was possible to scale it so that i still have the sliders visible just not that big.
I'm constantly adjusting the visibility of certain frames and turning them on and off so this would be handy as i like to have it close to reach.

I usually move it around, either over the timeline or a portion of the drawing area. I work on just one screen.

It is not a pressing issue, just a thought.

Cheers!

Yes, that would be nice. I never go beyond the 4th drawing when using the light table, so a scaleable window would be very much appreciated.
Every other panel can be put to the side but the light table panel is just too wide.

Maybe a vertical version would fit into the side panels?

Sounds very sensible to me. And it would be quite an improvement to the interface if we were able to dock the lighttable panel.

Well, it seems possible to do without involving too much work.
I will keep it in our records for the future.
