[chandler-users] Re: [d/f] Assorted Usage Notes

[Sheila Mooney]

Jeffrey, thanks for responding. To all that have asked about the View  
Selector moving from the View to the Tools menu, per Jeffrey's  
comments, there were a number of bugs preventing us having this  
functioning the way we would like. We don't have much time left and  
had to make a few hard choices about what to fix and what to defer.  
Unfortunately a number of these bugs got punted. John had addressed a  
number of issues but there were still bugs assigned to others we had  
to defer in order to keep on schedule.

Although we have moved it to the Tools menu, we have not removed it  
altogether so you will still be able to access this feature. We DID  
NOT send an email to the design list indicating that we would be  
moving this feature - my bad, sorry for the confusion.  As part of  
the Preview release we will have a "known bugs" page which will  
detail the remaining problems so when you use the feature, you will  
be aware of the limitations.

Cheers,
Sheila
