It's browser based.
This is what currently happens:
- You load the oversight.htm page
- this spawns the application window (one small window, containing buttons
to open debugger,wise,property inspector)
- clicking the buttons in the appwindow, opens another window containing one
of the Oversight modules (debugger,wise,etc..)
- Windows can be closed and reopened again..
- Closing the main window (containing your work area) will close all
oversight windows automatically
So in most cases you will have the following windows open:
- main editing window (your normal browser window containing blank page)
- Oversight appbar (small horizontal window.. only 100px high.. and 320px
width (for now))
- Editor (containing editing options to add layers)
- and possibly the property inspector
There will be window switching with alt-tab, but every module's title bar
contains the name of the module.. so with alt-tab it should be possible to
switch to the correct window without much problems.
I will try my best to release something this afternoon.. and post a link.
