It is not really inset (anymore) actually. It just has a soft border and a slightly darker background (which is roughly similar to the background gradient we use on buttons). Otherwise, the separator to the toolbar below is the same as every other separator. Personally, I find this a lot more inviting to click on it because it stands out, but I might be biased. :) -- Daniel Borgmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
