[patch] Altered Email Message Button Layout

Jason Robitaille · 10/30/2009, 12:13 AM

I personally like quick access to moving emails to other folders. The way the message view of the Email app is designed, leaves "Move to folder" in the top menu. Not my favourite choice.

This patch swaps around the "move to folder" menu option and the "reply to all" button.

I really was thinking about requesting this patch.

Jason thanks for the patch, didn't know there was move to folder button, I guess I really don't like menus, I applied the patch and then realized the reply all button is no longer there. As this is something I use regularly I needed to stay. I looked at your patch and just left the reply all option in. Thanks again for the patch!

yea, reply-all moved to the menu.

For anyone else wanting the 5-button option, here's a modified patch for that

I know this might be hard to believe, but I enjoy programming and patching

It's all like a fun puzzle that makes a beautiful picture when complete.

Well, frankly, getting the .patch out has higher priority for me that submitting it to dbsooner's form and waiting for him to upload it. Not to say it's not a high priority, just that lately school and other factor keep bringing delays to my webos stuff. I tend to submit them, just on my time schedule.

Plus, all my patches are MIT license with all the metadata in the patch itself. Anyone can feel free to submit my patches on my behalf, using the info from the patch metadata.

Excellent patch!! This will greatly help me keep my inbox clean while on the go...it was such a pain to go to the menu everytime, that I was only archiving on my PC....

Now I can regain control of my inbox!!!

dBsooner · 10/30/2009, 02:09 PM

Just a hunch, but this won't be comaptible with "Mark All Read/Delete All"? I am at work so I don't have a chance to download the patch and check for myself. I thought I would just ask. I'll know for certain later.

nah, they're separate parts of the Email app. This affects the message scene, whereas the "Mark All Read/Delete All" patch affects the folder view scene

Since we are in the email patching party, is there a chance to add a High Priority option on the menu for sending emails?

trim81 · 10/30/2009, 05:51 PM

about 4 times today, I hit the move folder when I actually wanted to reply to an email...

any way to move the move to folder icon to the 2nd OR all the way to the right?

I keep getting confused that the reply to button is now shifted over one

**mamouton** · 10/30/2009, 05:57 PM

high priority is already an option.
