Description Rodrigo Peretti CLA 2001-10-12 09:48:20 EDT
Please try to abstract my lack of UI vocabulary:

It would be nice if we had in the UI something like the MS Windows "Send To" 
option. Here is some possible usage:

* in the navigator, select a project or some files and "SendTo" 
Teams/Synchronize View (the resources would be automatically synchronized)

* in the navigator, select a project or some files and "SendTo" the Task View 
(I could see all markers associated with them)

* select some files in the Team/SynchronizeView and "SendTo" the navigator 
(like the "show in navigator" today)


I know that most of this features are already implemented using different menu 
options but it seems that providing an easier/more integrated way to "transfer 
data/context" between views would increase value in the user experience.

A greate plus would be having as a default DND behaviour, the same behaviour 
as the "SendTo" between views.
