Hello
I do not know if this is the right place to write those issues, and if
not please write where I can do so and sorry.
[1] The Graph Editor has a very basic default for fonts, and size of:
Axis Names, Labels, tics mark, etc.
Maybe there is a reason for that like performance.
The case is that users need to change all the time those
defaults, and when a lot of graphs are displayed, this is real, a lot of
work.
Is any possibility to give the user a button like "Save your
settings" and to save those settings, in a file to be used for every
graph in the future?.
A "Restore default settings or system settings" may be also
needed.
The most needed settings are the fonts and size.
[2] When browsevar is used to display variables, arrays, etc. It will
be easier if the user can save to a csv file a chosen array or matrix
directly from
the browsevar using just the mouse and choosing something like :
"save var to a file".
Engineers in my company usually are working interactively and
sometimes in their interactive work, they create a sci/sce program and
sometimes no.
They made a calculation, sometimes the results are returned
through variables, if some operations like plot, save to a csv file,
etc can be done interactively, I think
that this will make the work more "fluent" and easy.
[3] Just a button "Run" in the editor instead or in addition to the
"execute into Scilab" cascade option.
These three additions I agree, are not compared to increasing core
functionality in Scilab, even though it will increase the usability of
Scilab for users and specially for those that come from Matlab.
Thanks
Eduardo
