Ribbon menu instead of dropdowns
-
I would get rid of dropdown menus altogether. They're a bit fastidious to navigate. Why not use something like a ribbon menu with properly labelled big juicy icons? Just change the icons according to the panel you are displaying. It would make the UX/UI much more intuitive/explicit/easy to use.

You mean the dropdown meny in the Files plugin? Can you post an example of what you mean by a ribbon menu?

Yes. There's also a dropdown in the Wallet panel for password generation, locking/unlocking, etc...

I mean, you already do have a ribbon menu (contextual, appears when selecting a file to let you rename it, copy ascii code, etc...). Every menu should be a ribbon menu.

I've never been a fan of the ribbon, but perhaps there's something better than a dropdown menu that we can do.
