the buttons in the title do work, indeed... i wonder if they make more sense on the same side of the dialog together, but that's something i can experiment with easily enough on my own, though if we do buttons up there we need to get some agreed on UI standard for it. with two buttons it is nice and ballanced; with more or less it probably doesn't matter so much. with buttons on both sides then we need ot decide which kinds of buttons go where, which is not always a completely clear thing ... though at least on the tablet the UI we tend not to have many buttons (thankfully) and then if we move to the "tap outside to close without saving" as per Sebas' suggestion we get down to one button anyways and that's all a moot point. i like how it _really_ frees up room for the content and now moving the "lock as private" item to the top starts to make even more sense. as for the error message when the name is already taken, i have been thinking about this in context of other areas we face the same problem. something that occured to me as a possibility is that we could have a "balloon" that contains the error and points at the field (in this case the name text edit) with the error. this would move the error outside the fixed layout. the downside is that such messages could occlude other content undesirably ... but looking at various places this would/could get used it doesn't seem to be a real problem. what do our UI people think? -- Aaron J.
