How about having (hideable of course :)) on-canvas infos? IMHO that would be even fancier. Infos could be aligned with control that modifies them. Numerical input could be done similarly on-canvas. I think hovering pointer above e.g. rotation control and clicking middle button (?) could activate input (displayed on the place). That way we'd save considerable ammount of mouse movement between canvas and dock. To make things even more unobtrusive input could âslideâ after activation to some place on the screen (bottom of the screen) util value would be entered and whole control could be hidden. Wellâ there's the thing about this being fast, but I think that's what new, fancy compositioning infrastructures are for ;>. It seems to me like a reasonable application of new capabilities.
