It's not just the dynamic parts. Going through Sib 4, I'm finding
lots of nice, little features Finale would do well to implement:
• Translucent palettes (or "tool windows" as Sibelius calls them)
What use is there for this? Just to make it more Mac-like?
I use transparent windows all the time (see my other reply on this).
Nothing to do with Macs, just a different way of using a GUI. It
should be minimal work to make such an option available.
Well, on the Mac, yes, as it's part of the basic Quartz architecture.
I thought Windows wasn't getting the useless transparent dialogs
until Avalon, with the release of Longhorn.
No, on XP. I mentioned it earlier, but it's so useful I'll do so again:
Power Menuy, http://www.veridicus.com/tummy/programming/powermenu/, puts
transparency options into the context menus of (almost) any window.
