Hi Damien,

Does that mean that we will drop support for Tiger for OpenOffice.org Aqua?
Does the new interface in Leopard work in Tiger?

As i told ismael, and as you could see during the keynote, Apple have just homogenized Mac OS X nterface. Now, all design have been moved, and aqua no longer means blue-translucid buttons or tabs...

Have a look to the new Apple.com site, why do you think the top have been changed ? So i think we have to wait before design or re-design, Eric, Philipp or sebastien may have more informations from apple engineer about new IHM....

Think that we must have a leopard homogeneity...

Concerning the look of tabs, I still don't know which one we should use. Maybe Eric Bachard, Philip Lohman and Sebastien Plisson can have an answer from Apple engineers for the most "aqua" choice as they are at WWDC.

IMHO we want the one that looks "less tab like" (what are they called ?) The ones that look like a row of buttons. All other aplications including Apple's own dialogs use them.

I totally agree with the 2nd point of Christian Jansen proposition ("Then redesign and reduce the number of tabs for all platforms."). I think this will be very profitable for all platforms, and is necessary. Indeed, users can be lost with the great numbers of tabs of certain dialogs, and they may not know where to find a particular option. So they may think this option doesn't exist although it is in the 11th tab (out of 17) of foo dialog (i exaggerate a bit ;-) ). So, it could be a very good thing to reduce the numbers of tabs and to improve the names of some tabs which could be a bit confusing. The layout of some tab panes could also be improved.

Nothing to add. I wholeheartedly agree. However this will be a task not done in a few weeks; we will have to improve the dialogs one by one in that regard.

Kind regards, pl
