As I said in the wiki page, too, the images are done around a much smaller content. Normally the content would never get this small, since there's a min-width. I'll try to see how it looks with larger margins. > * uppercase is fine for one word but otherwise makes the text hard to > read; (why are the labels shouting at me?) I don't know why the labels are upper case, they were already so in the skin. But I agree, I don't like them shouting either. > * it's not clear how multiple includes are displayed Comma-separated list.

Since it's WYSIWYG, you can see the included document inline. But you still can't access it easily, so maybe this list should be in WYSIWYG also.

Don't know what should happen, but right now that link is hard-coded and always the same. > Sergiu Dumitriu wrote: >> Hi devs, >> >> We've been working on improving the editors (content, class, object), >> and now I have some pretty important UI changes to commit, but not >> everybody seems to agree with them, so I bring up a vote. >> >> The whole improvements can be seen on >> http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Improvements/ImprovedEdit >> >> Here are the individual voted points: >> >> 0 Remove all panels in edit mode > > If your goal is in-line/in-place editing why removing the view panels? Adding the view panels is a second step.
