Description alexander surkov 2013-08-15 18:54:42 UTC
for example we have:

1) Command: an element that defines a command, whose Type facet is "checkbox", and that is a descendant of a menu element whose type attribute is in the toolbar state

2a) input (type attribute in the Checkbox state and parent is a menu)
2b) menuitem (type attribute in the Checkbox state)

it looks like that 1 dupes 2a and 2b, having 2a and 2b should be enough. Agree?

It's not clear to me, but is it not possible to have an <option> element that is a descendant of <menu type="toolbar"> and that defines a checkbox command? If not, then I agree. If so, then perhaps we just add an extra entry for such an <option> element and remove the "Command:..." entry for the checkbox facet?

Can we do the same with "Command:..." entry for the radio facet?

Am I right in thinking we still need to keep the entry for "Command:..." with a command facet?

I think my primary concern is to keep commands stuff under elements section. Probably it'd be good to have a separate section for commands like we have for attributes. Or like you said list all elements that can be used to define a command.
