My comments (real quick, because I have to go to a meeting):
1/ when you mouseover all icons, you should see white text appear in a grey bar at the
top of the page, as well as the browser's status bar (make sure you are using msie ,
as i suggested)
2/ i will implement this. thx for sugg.
3/ mouse over the icons, one of them (a white document with a mouse and a star) is for
adding fuseactions.... see /1 to be sure
4/ hierarchy is for the most part enforced, javascript alert boxes prevent you from
violating the hierarchy as I define it in the help file
5/never used wireframes. if you know their datafile's syntax and want to write an
import utility, id be happy to integrate it
all the best,
