Hi, I just tried elicit and have some comments. I know it's CVS stuff, but I hope someone read my comments and think about them.
First it's a great application and I like it. ;-) But: - the "pseudo" window decoration looks like in winter theme. I think it looks not good in other themes - because window decoration isn't a real window decoration I couldn't move elicit to another virtual desktop with using magic borders. Pressing ALT while moving is a workaround, but not very "intuitive". - the "zoom icon" looks nearly the same as the "close icon" - the icons at the left tab are realy small and not intuitive - no tooltips - vertical scroller isn't mouse wheel sensible and too small - vertical scroller doen't behave like other unix scrollers. For example click with middle button jump to scroll position... - fonts are too small -> please look at my screenshot[1] and compare it to Gimp (gtk2) on the same screenshot Perhaps some comments aren't elicit specific and depend on the widget library (ewl?). Could someone please answer why all E0.17 apps and E0.16 itself has such small fonts and widgets compared to _all_ other widget sets? The first thing I did after switching to E0.16 was creating my own theme (SilverMania) because the most existing themes are too small on my screen. Here is a screenshot[2] of winter on my system. As I read on the user-list I'm not the only person with this problem. So please give any comment about this. Why doesn't other environments have this font/widget size problems? [1] http://brachttal.net/tmp/elicit1.jpg Here you can see the font problem: [2] http://brachttal.net/tmp/winter_small.jpg the title is "[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~" -> Can you read it without elicit? ;-) Another widget size example: http://brachttal.net/tmp/focus2.jpg The "X" in the checkbutton looks like a dot (winter theme). I'll size this up in my own theme next time, but you see the "widget size problem"? Perhaps it's an idea to give size settings in the E themes not in pixel, but in a value that is sized with resolution and screen size to avoid this problem. As I remember in Windows (at least Visual Basic) there's something called "Twips". Or is there another idea how to solve this widget/font size problem with different resolution and/or screen size? regards Andreas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
