Radial Menu on right click?

Open tomtachi opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Can you provide a way to temporarily show up menus right close to your current cursor/pen position?

This is often realized as a radial menu when you right-click or hit a special key. This is helpful as you don't need to move the pens to the very end of the screen each time you switch the tool or change color.

Yes, this is a nice idea: duplicate all the tool/color/width buttons (probably not document-level buttons like grid, save as SVG, etc.) in a popup on appropriate click (I guess right click by default, maybe configurable in a dialog). Should be relatively easy to do, other than figuring out a nice layout...

Meanwhile, note that most tools have keyboard shortcuts (#57 or hover over tool) so that's the fast way to switch tools for now.
