Hi,<br>
I guess in a GIS oriented product <br>
Is necessary to avoid to mix the interface characteristics (the
group is an interface object) and the data characteristics (the
shapefile is not an interface object).<br>
<br>
I guess more beter if add/remove dataset is separated phisically
from add/remove a group.<br>
<br>
The dataset is a phicical think. The shapefile is using separately
from the qgis project.<br>
The group is not separately from qgis project.<br>
<br>
I guess is good question to have a "remove group" but avoiding to
have a only button "ADD Everything" or an only button "Remove
everything"<br>
<br>
Also I guess is important to help to understand when we are on
dataset (physical) and when we are on interface (logical).<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
A.<br>

<div>Greetings,<br>
<br>
I'd like to circulate a UX proposal and see how
people react. <br>
<br>
</div>
For a very long time, QGIS' Layers toolbar has
featured a "Remove layer(s)" button. I have seen
two issues with the button:<br>
</div>
- Its placement becomes really odd when plugins add
button(s) to the Layers toolbar (for e.g. the New
Memory Layer plugin as pictured here [ <a href="http://imgur.com/CEcIC3K,QvUzrti" target="_blank">http://imgur.com/CEcIC3K,QvUzrti</a>
])<br>
</div>
- It can only remove vector/raster layers, won't
remove groups<br>
<br>
</div>
With the recent improvements done by Martin Dobias on
the legend, and in particular with his addition of a
layer panel embedded toolbar, I propose that:<br>
</div>
- The "Remove layer(s)" button be moved to the layer panel
embedded toolbar [ <a href="http://imgur.com/CEcIC3K,QvUzrti#1" target="_blank">http://imgur.com/CEcIC3K,QvUzrti#1</a>
]<br>
</div>
- The button functionally is improved so it can also deal
with the removal of group(s)<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Alternatively, we could get rid of the button altogether
since layers and groups can be removed via right click or
keyboard shortcut, but I suspect the touch screen based
users might object.<br>
<br>
</div>
Any objection to moving the button to the new layers toolbar?<br>
