Hello,<br>
<br>
I got sidetracked in a number of my last posts in trying to convince
people that the keyboard shortcut, and clicking the icon were
inadequate for new users. But, this isn't the point of this
thread. I'm sorry for being so longwinded, and immovable on those
subjects, it was not my intent.<br>
<br>
My intent was simply to say, I know a number of people who would
benifit from the default being a single click. If it turns
out that the majority of users would benifit from this, then we should
make it the default behavior, allowing the minority of users who want
it to be different to change the setting. I'll be willing
to live in the group that must change the setting if I'm convinced that
the majority of users would benifit from the current behavior. <br>
<br>
As it looks now, there are plenty more people subscribed to this list
who would prefer that it stays the way it currently is. :)
And I swear, this will be my last post on this thread. (It's the third
time I've told myself this.)<br>
