Marco Scholten's new dialog is now committed in CVS.
I'd welcome any comments on the dialog and the todo list.
If I may have a start, it's great.
Thanks :)
Todo: -Enable opening of dialog by doubleclicking toolbar buttons.
Yes. And position to the right page.
That's the plan.
-Add access keys to all labels and widgets (HIG chapter 10)
The same with Doc Props todo here.
-Add icons to the pagelist
Volunteers needed!
[...some interesting things omitted...] -Add dialogs.showclose preference
Yes. The text would be "Show HIG-conform close button in dialogs" and the tooltip should mention that it refers to the Gtkmm dialogs, I think.
That is really interesting for us developers but i doubt an avarage user knows or cares about gtk+/gtkmm, instead i think we should work hard to make sure that soon there will only be the gtkmm kind of dialog :)
About Adding access keys to all labels and widgets, this would break all translations so i'd like to know if we really want this before i go ahead and do it.
That would interest me, too, but we can't wiggle out of that IMO.
I agree, our first concern should be to make the best possible user interface even if it takes a little more work.
