RE: [platform-ui-dev] Parameterized Commands (was 'Key Binding Problem')
|
Separating user interface elements from core elements is good in general but at some point you'll need to present a list of Commands to the user (in a script editor or keybinding dialog for example). Then each Command will need a human readable name and description, and an icon. Earlier you said you wanted, post M8, to replace Actions with Commands, but it seems that they'll need essentially the same properties. Or were you thinking that a Command would *always* be paired one to one with an Action and that the Action would "decorate" the Command?
