That's so nice.  I would have no objection if that is made default.

It looks really great.

 Does anyone care about the translucency?  I'm not sure yet if I do.  Maybe 
 just a slight dab of transparency with this dark background scheme might show 
 enough of the scene to help pilots stay on the taxiway while playing with the 
 settings,  without taking away from the appearance of the gui.
 


Why not let user set the transparency in the property tree? Trying to
decide what the 'best' level of transparency is sounds like an
invitation to a religious war. The property tree is your savior, and
that my friend is the truth straight from above.

  Maybe a new style for fgfs 1.0.0 would be a good idea. I'm biased,
  though, and can't vote for it. 
  
 
 Excellent work Melchior!  A long overdue update.

..no need to wait for 1.0.0, if we like it now, we put it in now.
0.9.9 could have us see a need for 0.9.10, 0.9.11, 0.9.12 etc, 
as we all like to get 1.0.0 damn right.  ;o)

And it sounds like you just found that property tree Josh,  especially with all 
those religious metaphors.  SO why don't we just talk about the default?  Isn't 
that what was up for discussion?  The current color scheme was chosen because 
the designer wanted transparent dialogs.

As far as making it user adjustable,  that sounds great.

Best,

Jim

That would be like doing paper work while you are taxing.  Not recommended. =)
