New features to Quick launcher

Yes, I admit I requested this and posted about it in another thread, and mentioned the double click in relation to my kids, but to be clear thats me too, for the benefit of everyone. The point was to make it mouse friendly, as previously its main use case seemed to be searching and executing with keyboard, but not as a mouse driven launcher. Moksha normally launches applications with single click (start menu, ibar, etc) and the only other way to launch double click is by adding desktop icons and not enabling single click launch. Everything starter the only thing that required two clicks. This also allows touchscreen usage.  For new installs I don't see why double click should be default. Its confusing, doesn't match moksha behavior, and unncessary. Double click should be the alnernate setting in my opinion (and I find it unlikely anyone would ever use it, I see no point at all for it.)

Besides single click, the other biggest improvements (for bl5, i realize it was already in bl6 rc) are the geometry settings - instead or arbiraty 800x600 limit, now arbritrary 2000x2000 limit, so big enough for fullscreen on 1080p display if desired. 4K monitors sorry ), and the scaling setting - can  make icons big and pretty if desired, and not crop the title text!

Actually my mouse is 5 button and one of them does act as a 'back' button in web browsers and stuff. I do not know of any efl application that supports this button, and I am unsure what kind of mouse event clicking that button throws. Code wise that is. I am also unsure how universal some C code in EFL that could catch that click would be. Would it support another mouse with such functionality. 

Anyway while I may get around to looking at that issue using my mouse as test, I see no reason to try to implement that for Moksha. Perhaps in the future after I do more research into that.

That is very interesting idea which I like because now it is possible to use evry as regular menu with look up entry. If I understand properly you simply do not want the launcher history. I made a simple change in code. Yes, it is not possible to do from any evry settings. Is this what we want?

You can change the "All" plugin view mode to "list".

I've used similar settings to change other tabs to icons, and I want to keep All as icons too.... so not sure how this setting is related?

Ah ok. Thats kinda disappointing, but if you say that I guess those two tabs must share some common settings or variables or something... none of the other tabs like settings or windows show history at least.... hmm.

How about an option to set the (maximimum) number of history items displayed? At least that way, the user could find a number and geometry settings that makes all the history items + all the menu categories fit on the screen (without scrollbars), and they no longer would keep rearranging themselves when user runs a new app, so the categories would stay in the same place.

If setting a number is not possible, turning history off, which seems to turn the "All" tab into an applications menu and making the applications tab redundant, would still be a useful option, but I don't think should be default for everyone (as opposed to if it was just for applications tab I would think it should be default behavior) however I'd certainly use it on my kids PCs.
