Don,
By putting all the tools in a single drawer (as Remote Icons) one has
created the visual-interface equivalent of a text-interface 'menu.' I want
to open a single drawer and pick from my TxED+, Flow, Maxiplan, Rolodex, etc.
With one drawer containing icons, I don't have to click and open all over the
place.
There's no reason that an icon has to be in the same 'drawer' as that which
it iconifies. An icon is just a visual handle; and the best location of a
handle is 'close by.'
