Description

You can reduce the number of clicks by half if you allow to slide open the menus on over which users can decide to enable/disable.. Also since I have a small 15 screen i have to scroll down to select settings menu when any other is open. an option to forget menu state might help

Please do not close tickets as 'fixed' until the changes have been commited to the WordPress Core.

I'm not in favor of this based on feedback we received when discussing menu options with users during testing and development phases for 2.7. I think this would make an excellent plugin, but should not be in core.

  • Milestone changed from 2.7.1 to 2.8

-1.

I don't like hover-open menues either. So at most I'd want this to be a choosable option.

Changing milestone - isn't 2.7.1 suppose to be bug fixes?

Seems like a won't fix to me. The behavior is intentional and can almost completely be possible to override with a plugin.
