TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I've shared some of Jared Spool's findings on tabbed dialog boxes with our
main Windows 95 developer. He found it interesting, but would have liked a
solution to the problem! One thing he is thinking of doing is, instead of
having one Options command with a huge number of tabs, having several
Options commands (e.g. Tool Options, View Options, and so on), each with a
smaller number of tabs. Seems to me that would be somewhat more usable. What
do you think?
