Re: Options Icons
Hello Richard, BR When I switched from classic windows appearance to XP mode on the BR desktop, then the buttons being on and off is much clearer in the BR message composition window's on the bottom tool bar. When depressed, BR an option button turns a red-orange color and is easy to see. Same here after changing theme to XP. Now to adapt that theme to the colors/background I want. And, I shouldn't have to do that to get the icons to work. The icons (buttons) do work in classic windows appearance. Although I must admit the different states are a little more difficult to differentiate, specially depending on the colours used. But the buttons 'work'. See attached PNGs: - Normal state, buttons are flat. - Mouse hover, buttons are in 3D (protruding relief) with shade on right side and bottom. - Set state, button depressed. With dark shade on top and light and bottom. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Options Icons
Hello Maxim, In editing plain text messages, the difference in appearance of the icon for the on/off options of Confirm receipt and Reading confirmation are barely distinguishable. Perhaps the check mark on the on icons should be green or there should be a big X over the icon when the feature of off. Whatever the solution, it should be as readily distinquishable as the adjacent icon for priority. Other thoughts? -- Best regards, Richardmailto:newmangr...@gmail.com -- Using The Bat! v4.1.1.5 RC1 (BETA) on Windows XP5 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 4.1.1.5 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

The solution should be the use of two icons and a good customization of them. -- /\/ Using The Bat! 4.1.1.4 RC1 (BETA) Professional / \ / \ / Windows XP (5.1.2600 Service Pack 3) /\/ e t \/ i c i o u s Plugins: AntiSpamSniper 3.1.0.3 and miniRelayPlug 0.05.50 Moderator of Spanish TBUDL Spanish Translator of The Bat!
