[Rseding91] [0.13.0] Cancel button in blueprint gui

Post by DaveMcW »

The cancel button in the blueprint gui should be on the far right.

Yeaah... but if we move it then someone else will complain and want it some other way and there's just no perfect solution.

Also shift + right click on the blueprint will clear it if you don't want to open the GUI every time.

Moving to known issues until we can think up something better and or the crashes/corruption bug reports calm down :)
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

In Windows UI design specs, X always goes on the extreme right.
In Mac UI design specs, X always goes on the extreme left.
In Linux UI design specs, X always goes on the extreme left.

There is no reason to violate every user expectation by putting it in the middle. This is made worse by the "delete blueprint" icon looking vaguely like another cancel button.

Why there's even a 'Clear Blueprint' button in the gui, if we can do it via shift+right click ? I've already cleared 2 or 3 blueprints by accident, because it's there :|

The Clear Blueprint button should be a trashcan in my opinion.

Yeah, I know, it's too similar to the 'cancel blueprint edit' button, that's why I cleared them by accident :P
