It is too easy to stop a device
Posted: Apr 20th, 2008, 9:08 am
I dislike the fact that just clicking on a device name can stop the device as I think it is dangerous and prone to error.
So while some people may be comfortable with that, I would like us both to have the choice. Can I suggest this:
An option in the configuration settings which has a standard tick box on/off like this:
Option:
[ ] Control+mouse click stops device
(Default is mouse-click only)
[x] Control+mouse click stops device
(Default is mouse-click only)
That way. some people could stop a device by clicking, while others (like me) would stop it by Control+clicking.
Also, when Control+click stops a device I would like to just press "Enter" to bring up the properties of the device rather than having to go to a menu.
