The stark contrast between the buttons and the subdued text gives an easy-to-grasp overview on which images have been saved/exported and the button allows the user to directly take the necessary actions. It could be argued whether the first example should be included considering the product vision; my suggestion would be only when "export to"/"overwrite" is populated. Of course this is up for debate, but you wanted a step out of the ballpark and here it is. In case anyone wants to edit the design, here http://tobiaslunte.de/gummibaerchen/save_export_-_confirm_on_close.xcf [2] is the corresponding xcf. --> A similar idea (including only the save-button so that one wouldn't have to go through the images one by one) has popped up before. Unfortunately I couldn't find the original mail in the archives, else I'd be happy to give credit where it's due. bw, Tobias Lunte // Tobl Links: ------ [1] http://tobiaslunte.de/gummibaerchen/save_export_-_confirm_on_close.png [2] http://tobiaslunte.de/gummibaerchen/save_export_-_confirm_on_close.xcf _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
