All things below are more of a wish list (or probably me overseeing a few things?)

I use IPE a lot with a pen on a HP with pen-tablet-X360 functionality (Windows 10). But I'm "a lefty", and this way it would be easier to have the palettes more on the right side and the bottom side, so I can use my right finger to "push the buttons" while drawing with my left hand using the stylus. Same goes for the "properties" part of the GUI.

  • But maybe this is allready possible, and I'm missing something? I seem to be able to shuffle a bit with the location and the size of the top horizontal palettes, but somehow I don't manage to move all of them as much to the right as possible?

  • No idea if I can change them in e.g. vertical palettes instead of horizontal ones? Or even "horizontal-at-the bottom-of-the-screen", why not?

  • Oh, and I miss a "save" button while drawing on the tablet, without a keyboard at hand to type "ctrl-S" ;-) Same as a "paste-at-cursor-position" (= ctrl-V).

There used to be an optional "tablet" part of the edit menu with a save button, but this seems to have gotten lost because I didn't have a suitable icon and there was no more demand for the tablet-functionality in Ipe.

"Paste at Cursor" is on the context menu.

I'll have to look at what options I can set in Windows to make the toolbars more right aligned...
