Beginnings of Context Menus



One of the big things that Wings has that is nice is their context menus. The Forge is going to have these as well, and will be operated in a similar manner. Basically, rather than piling a bunch of icons on the screen, and hoping that you'll be able to find the one that does the job you want, only the options that are valid at a particular point in time will be available.

Today I got started on making those menus, though there is a long way to go before they will be fully developed. In fact, I'd say that when they are functioning like they should, it will be time to move from 'Pre-Alpha' to 'Alpha', since you'll be able to model things.
