Description

Currently the menu is a shortcut to the whole Options, which is confusing for the user, as also tabs for non relevant options are shown (e.g. Digitizing, etc.).

History

#2 Updated by Paolo Cavallini about 6 years ago

Still true in QGIS 3

Please change the affected version.

#4 Updated by Harrissou Santanna almost 6 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Feedback

Cannot reproduce with 3.0-rel-dev nor master(3.1) on windows.
Can you confirm, Paolo?

#5 Updated by Paolo Cavallini almost 6 years ago

Cannot test on 3.1 now. On 3.0 it was as in 2.18.
Thanks.

#6 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 5 years ago

  • Status changed from Feedback to Closed
  • Resolution set to not reproducable

Closing for lack of feedback.

#7 Updated by Paolo Cavallini over 5 years ago

  • Resolution deleted (not reproducable)
  • Status changed from Closed to Open
  • Affected QGIS version changed from 3.0.0 to 3.2.2

This is still unchanged. To better explain: I believe that the menu `Settings` in the Layout window should not bring up the whole `Options` popup, as it happens currently (with the `Layouts` tab preselected), but a dialog with only the `Layout` options. The current situation is confusing to the user.
