Good thinking Jonathan. Reminded me that we did that, with the following in the user agent guidelines: 11.7 Tool bar configuration. (P3) + For graphical user agent user interfaces with tool bars, allow the user to configure the position of user agent user interface controls on those tool bars. + Offer a predefined set of controls that may be added to or removed from tool bars. + Allow the user to restore the default tool bar configuration. -- http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG/guidelines.html#tech-configure-controls (This covers your use case, which is more serious, more than mine, but suggesting techniques to the working group is always a good thing). cheers Chaals On Wed, 11 Dec 2002, Jonathan Chetwynd wrote: >Chaals, > > regarding learning disability and input > >I've always felt it should be relatively trivial, (or easy) to change >the contents of toolbars, or personalise them this is one of the >benefits of linux. > >for instance when introducing an email program, it would be much >simpler if only the compose and send buttons were present, at least >until a message was received. > >ctrl click and drag for all elements of all applications, pass it on to >UA > >jonathan > -- Charles McCathieNevile http://www.w3.org/People/Charles tel: +61 409 134 136 SWAD-E http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/Europe ------------ WAI http://www.w3.org/WAI 21 Mitchell street, FOOTSCRAY Vic 3011, Australia fax(fr): +33 4 92 38 78 22 W3C, 2004 Route des Lucioles, 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France
