A small but important usability improvement: sub menu delay
-
As there are several large sub menus, especially Text > "Installed fonts", it would be highly useful if you could set a minor delay in triggering opening of a sub menu, e.g. 500 ms or so. That would make it possible to go through menu items with large sub menus and make the use of such menus much more convenient!

@Arde Added to the backlog, but it might be tricky on macOS. Menu opening (and handling in general) is controlled by the OS (cocoa framework).

Actually this does work fine on macOS -- there seems to be an inherent delay so that I can traverse e.g. the Text menu without any issues (the sub menus do not show when I pass through the menu items in "normal" pace). On Windows the sub menus practically always show (even after a very quick passthrough), and especially the installed fonts sub menu is very wide so it also comes in the way when trying to traverse the menu items of the Text menu.
This seems to be specific to VectorStyler Windows menus so they are probably not system menus (?). E.g. in Illustrator (Windows version) I can traverse the menu items without showing the long font sub menus unless staying a while on top of the parent menu item.

@Arde The new build improves on the Windows menu handling.

Thanks, that makes all the difference.
