Just discussed this with a friend who's making a similar app to QC but
for images (toolbox.app - toolboxapp.com if anyone is interested) and
has a similar issue to the QC patch creator box - a massive list of
patches to scroll through and find what you need in. For good
interface design, ideally such lists should only contain 10 or less
patches
this problem in interface design has already been solved very
effectively by high end node based vfx tools.
eg shake, digital fusion and maya.
best solution imo is a combination of a tab based toolbox for
browsing AND radial marking menus which pop up under the cursor
position when modifier keys are pressed.
but seeing as qc is a free developer tool not sure it's going to get
that level of UI tweaking which it deserves...
