Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #25 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- I want to remind everyone that in addition to the more involved changes to the UI, Yousuf suggested: (Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) from comment #6) > We should add a section above 'Contains' called 'Inherited' and then list > the name of the parent style followed by its attributes that arent being > overwritten by the child style. I believe this should be implemented independently of other changes. IMHO this is both easy to implement, has no drawbacks that I can think of, and will not interfere with changes to the rest of the UI. (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #18) > Personally my preference (visually and functionally) would be a *small > button* attached to each property's *label* Looked at the mockup. I support this general approach (of per-item toggles), but currently I feel this makes the dialog feel too cluttered. Possible mitigations/improvements: * Have the per-property control indicate "non-inherited" vs "inherited"status by some other way than grayed-out / non-grayed-out. * The per-property toggles will have lower visibility / attract less attention, e.g. * invisible when not hovering over the main control or the toggle, and/or * black circle-surrounded control over gray dialog background * Per-tab or per-dialog control (e.g. checkbox) of whether the per-property toggles are visible/usable or not. An alternative idea altogether to Mike's mock-up is to have a per-tab/per-dialog toggle which highlights non-inherited properties, or perhaps hides inherited properties. Not sure I'm in favor of this, it's just a thought. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
