| == Improvement/Suggestion list == === Input boxes should have a changable length === |
Improvement/Suggestion list 1. Input boxes should have a changable length - sometimes longer inputs are necessary, and these are not handled gracefully. 2. Controls placed horizontally - it would save a lot of screen real estate if controls could be placed next to each other. 3. Controls changing state of other controls - currently this is not possible. 4. Image input - for example, being able to click and drag a point in a displayed image. Probably hard to implement. 5. Show current value next to slider control, perhaps also min/max: e.g. {{{[min] |----------------[V]----| value [max]}}} 6. Add a 'point' control. One way to do it is to display two text boxes with the x and y coordinates for the point (measured in [0,1] coordinates) and a big colored dot. Whenever the dot is dragged onto an image, the x and y coordinates are updated to the ratio of the click coordinates to the image size. == Links == * [[http://code.google.com/p/playwith/wiki/Screenshots|R package playwith]] - similar idea, inside a gtk2 window |
This is a informal page for coordinating suggestions on improving the interact command. At some point it should be either deleted, turned into a trac ticket, or more formal enhancement proposal. Any commentary on the nuts and bolts of what code should be changed would be appreciated as well.
