my choice was not entirely derived from my personal perference, but based on (what i think) the general readability between the two choices. i mean, on my own system, i use *very* small font system wide, because i like it that way. as to desiredata, the screenshots so far are only for demo purposes, showing whatever features that are there. i mean, if i am using desiredata everyday for myself, i sure will prefer bold, rather normal. and yes, ultimately, it would be perfect if all elements can be cumstomized. ie. lighter object boxes, or no object boxes at all;) but we are not quite there yet.. chun > > .hc > > > > > cheers > > > > chun > > > >> > >> d. > >> > >> -- > >> derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl > >> ---Oblique Strategy # 19: > >> "Be dirty" > >> > >> _______________________________________________ > >> PD-list@iem.at mailing list > >> UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/ > >> listinfo/pd-list > >> > > > > _______________________________________________ > > PD-list@iem.at mailing list > > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/ > > listinfo/pd-list > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > ---- > > You can't steal a gift.
