The only screen shot is the linux > list dialog (which I must admit looks a lil' bit > horrific!). The goto dialog is stable and basically finished. I will make some more changes to the lists dialog Real Soon Now. I plan to change the layout a bit and to include a new feature. Screen shots of the goto and list dialogs can be sent any who want them but they're 88 KBytes each. Luckily abiword-dev didn't let them through the first time I sent them. My current thinking for the next itteration of the lists dialog will look like this: =================================================== | Start | List Type | Starting Value | | new List | | | =================================================== | Stop List | Resume List | =================================================== | Change | List Type | Starting Value | | Current List | | | =================================================== | Apply | Close | =================================================== So I will add the Resume List button to resume a list at the next list value after stopping it. The various options in the dialog are set sensitive or insensitive depending on the context of the cursor in the current view. The dialog is modeless and auto-updates every 0.5 seconds and upon a focus event into the dialog. I am very open to suggestions for a better looking dialog. Feel free to be opinionated!
