------- Additional comments from a...@openoffice.org Thu Feb 5 17:50:05 +0000 2009 ------- AW: Thanks for the added examples and infos. I would have wondered if Apple really was inconsistent :-) The Safari screenshot (safari-highlight-picture.png) is very interesting. It shows that they do the same as we do, except for main text. I write main text, because the most interesting part is the picture description text. Is it black without selection? Then they do the 'lay behind' hilighting really only for 'main' text. COuld You check, please? Please let's not talk about Adobe's Indesign CS3, XOR is really no longer feasible except for high contrast (do i understand it right that they are not conform with the Mac rules :-)) It is simply a fact that XOR is ugly for most and also has the worst result for the font smoothed edges. Overlaying with transparent is better in that aspect, and most do not want to have the extreme contrast it gives. Also (Well, not on Mac) it normally inverts everything, so You have to guess e.g. on red text when it is selected if it is red text when unselected. This information stays (slightly blended) with the overlayed transparency, You can still see which color(s) the selected text has. >but it is a departure from how this feature is implemented system-wide. ..well, on the Mac systems. Have You seen the download numbers of OOo per System...? I see that the Mac's way to do text selection ist the best compromize (i like it personally), but please see the relationships, too... All in all, i hope we will one day be able to do the bestmost selection on all Systems. Maybe we should change this task to 'Enchancement' and keep it as a reminder when we are able to do it tme mac way on all systems (or wait until the numbers have inverted :-)... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
