Having to learn and having to read a manual are 2 things, not necessarily connected. I like interfaces I can learn to use by exploration. I don't mind having to learn new things, if there's something to be gained from, and expect many people to see this the same way. I don't mind having to read documentation to learn how to uv map a polygon model in some 3d app because of the inherent complexity. But a single widget is a different story. --- Thorsten
