[DUG] New Microsoft menus

[Ross Levis]

What do you guys think of the departure away from text menus and tool
buttons, such as in Office 2007 and IE7.  As a user I find it irritating and
prefer to look through a tidy list of menu items than a scattered set of
horizontal options.

 

Is anyone planning to use menus this way in their apps?

 

And another trend I'm seeing is scrollable options pages.  You need to
scroll down to see all the options and settings.  It's similar to viewing a
web page I guess, but I've never done it this way.  I use multiple tabs in
tab sheets.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Ross.
