Hi,
More than 6 months have passed since we introduced the new action menus
<http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/ActionBars>(in XE 2.1).
If you want to make a comparison you can look at the old menus Toucan
<http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Skins/ToucanSkin>skin has.
It would be great to have some feedback on the way the new menus
improved/messed the productivity/flow.
There are lots of aspects we need to take into considerations because XWiki
is used worldwide both by developers and by less experienced users.
Suggestions on how we can still improve the menus are very welcomed.
Thanks for participating in improving the User Experience for Open-Source
projects,
Caty

I already said that when we introduced the new menu and i still can't
really get used to: having directly the name of the wiki identifier
and the name of the space as menu name is not clear IMO:
1) using the pretty name of the wiki instead of the wiki technical
identifier would be a lot nicer
2) it's not clear it's about the wiki because the user does not always
know that's the name of the wiki, i think i would prefer something
like: WIKI (Wiki pretty name) SPACE (Space name)

I agree about this one too.
Other things:
- When trying to click on "edit", the clickport sometimes feels a bit
small, hard to reach with the mouse pointer
- When there are no panels on the left, in advanced user mode, I
sometimes go over the edit drop-down while trying to reach the xwiki
drop-down thus ending up with 2 drop-down menus that overlap, it's a bit
confusing
Other than that I like them :-) (but I'm also a heavy keyboard shortcut user
so my opinion isn't worth that much).
