Question

Per just about every known human interface guideline out there, indirect menu actions (those that go through an intermediate step, such as a dialog window requiring an additional user choice or action) should be titled with an trailing ellipsis. I'd like to request that the 'Insert Silence' and 'Delete Time' items present in the Edit menu be re-named 'Insert Silence...' and 'Delete Time...', respectively, to more accurately indicate that the action does not take place immediately upon selection of the menu item, but will instead display a dialog window in which the user must specify the start and end times of the range to be acted upon.

Answer 1

Thank you for the feature request. 

If anyone else agrees or disagrees, then please vote it up, or down. 

To vote:

In agreement click on the little blue triangle pointing up.

In disagreement click on the little blue triangle pointing down.

The developers pay close attention to those that are voted on the most. 

You are allowed one vote. 

Just viewing and agreeing but not clicking on the vote does not help the issue. 

Please click on one or the other. 

Answer 2

As a general observation, those functions also work directly, without opening any dialog.   It depends on what's selected at the time and how.
