Marc,
What Larry's referring to overall is Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGIntro/XHIGIntro.html),
which basically define what's "expected" from Apple programs. Many programs
will conform to these guidelines, which impose general color schemes,
scrollbars, and conventions more or less analogously to what GTK does for
Linux (there's a shell script that makes Ubuntu use the Aqua theme-- it well
shows how Aqua and GTK function in similar ways with regards to interface
design). It shouldn't be deadly difficult to find how the others use these
sets, though I don't think it requires that much.
Though Larry, plenty of people use MSO for Mac, which definitively does
break the HIG.
Ahh, thanks for the information. I know that there has been talk of
having a separate Mac set of screenshots.
IMHO, if we can make LibreOffice colours show on desktops then it will
be great marketing feat. I would imagine that if the LibreOffice green
sticks out in a sea of "blue or graphite", then people will notice it. I
don't think people will complain of the LibreOffice software quality
because it displays different colours. I guess we would then be
considered the "nasty rebels" on the Mac platform ... ironic when you
consider the Mac has TV commercials depicting itself as a rebel to
MSWindows. :-)
Cheers
Marc
