Feature freeze is coming up tomorrow and so far we've only gotten two
votes: one for alternative 1 and another for alternative 2. So take a
moment and let us know which design you prefer. John -------- Original Message --------
Hi: We're trying to evaluate some alternate sidebar designs for icons and the overlay state. You could help us out by giving us your opinion on the alternatives, or by suggesting better alternatives. To see the different alternatives, check out the latest Chandler, start with a fresh repository, add a bunch of collections, explore overlaying and displaying them, noting the mouse hover state, the icons, and the disabled state when viewing only the all collection. Next, checkout the first alternative design by choosing Test>Skins>CPIA Test. It uses a separate control for the overlay state. There is an unfortunate bug that recently popped up in CPIA Test, where the menus disappear, so, for now, quit and restart to get the menus back. Finally, choose the second alternative by choosing Test>Skins>CPIA Test2. It's the same as the first alternative, except that it displays an off state, instead of displaying nothing, for the non-overlayed state. Let us know which you prefer, or if you've got some other ideas you'd like to see, since it's reasonably easy to try alternatives. John P.S. There are a few other bugs that you might encounter, but we thought it was better to try to get feedback on which design people preferred before we fixed every last bug. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "Design" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/design |
