I was going to say that basic elements of the user interface should follow the users configuration in their chosen theme or whatever is appropriate for their OS. We shouldn't start providing ways to override what the system is setup to do as doing so for standard elements essentially makes the themes mechanism redundant, and we'll potentially end up having to add colour selection for countless different things. That said, I just checked both Visual Studio and XCode, and both of those allow you to override the background colour as well as choose custom foreground highlighting colours, so I guess my argument is pretty weak :-( Therefore, objection retracted. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgadmin-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-hackers
