I really don't like the M-idea. It makes it very cumbersome to do successive adjustments. I think the idea of eliminating accidental clicks is a somewhat flawed, it's hard to protect the user against herself. With a simple click, you can do many things in Rawstudio, that is not easily reversible. What I do suggest thou, is that we change the cursor - it could be a GDK_TARGET, GDK_TCROSS or maybe a GDK_CROSSHAIR, that would show the user that something is going on when the pointer enters the preview area. /abrander _______________________________________________ Rawstudio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://rawstudio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rawstudio-dev
