Hello! I love Zeal, and I would love to see some user interface improvements in it.
For example, in this screenshot, several things could be improved:
- The "favicons" for each tab should match the docset being used, instead of the 5DB0 Zeal logo
- There are 4 layers of toolbars in between the top of the window, and the content (Window title bar, menu bar, tabs bar, search/navigation). It would be good to somehow combine these into fewer layers. The Gnome project has a design pattern for this that can be found here but I'm not too sure if there's something equivalent for Qt.
- One simple way I can see to start doing this is to supply an option for hiding the menu bar. Many applications (for example Firefox or Slack) allow to do this by using the
Altkey. As the menu bar doesn't expose any essential functionality, this could be a good way to get started.
I'm happy to try to contribute code, but I don't know the first thing about Qt, so I might need some help to get started on this.
Edit: Forgot to mention that this screenshot is from the zeal-git package on the AUR, running under Gnome.
