You are going wrong way...

2001-09-21 Thread Jacek Wojaczynski

Hello Bat-maniacs!

Well... I have recently installed the newest beta version
and I'm really disappointed.

A saw very nice option here:

 |- Options
   |- Preferences
 |- Viewer

and there - the possibility to select a different color for
signature, for quoted text, even quoted text... but it works
only with Rich Text/HTML Viewer which is so slow that
I cannot use it on my system ;-(

And now the question:
Is it really so difficult to make these colors for fixed
font viewing? IMO these colors (signature and even quoted
text) might also be in the editor window - I'd love that.

Please - why are you going somewhere with Rich Text/HTML??
I REALLY don't need this crap.

PS. Why I can use only TT fonts in Rich Text/HTML viewing?
I have a font SS_Iso and I can't use in fixed fonts view
(because it's not a fixed font) and can't use in Rich
Text/HTML view (because it's not a TT font). I cannot use
this font in TB! Why not?? No problems to use this font in a
newsreader (Xnews).

regards,

why not try right clicking the preview pane and going to preferences
and then the Display tab

the colors change just fine
and it stays true for the editor window as well

 Unfortunately the development isn't powered by only your needs.

I know that... but why Rich Text/HTML is on the first
place?? I'd like to see signatures in a different color and
even quoted text in a different color... and I don't like
Rich Text/HTML viewer because it's slow, very slow...

OK. I understand that it is so difficult to implement it,
right? The only way to see a signature in a different color
is Rich Text/HTML view? No more questions...

regards,

[1] I have nothing against Rich Text/HTML Viewer. Maybe
there are some users who use it... It would be better for me
if it was a plug-in, because I don't use it...
All I want are the same color schemes for fixed width font as
it is now for Rich Text/HTML view. Howgh.

Because there has been a lot of requests for it. Requests from many
who do use the other very useful features of TB! that aren't available
in other clients.

The plain text viewer is still available for those uninterested in the
RTFV.

JW I'd like to see signatures in a different color and even quoted
JW text in a different color... and I don't like Rich Text/HTML
JW viewer because it's slow, very slow...

Apparently implementing this sort of thing in the plain text viewer is
very difficult, hence the move to another viewer.

JW OK. I understand that it is so difficult to implement it, right?

JW Text/HTML view? No more questions...

At the moment, yes.

I do appreciate the slowness at this time. It's still in beta so we
don't know what it will be like when fully optimised. I already see
that it's faster in beta 9.

I am afraid not. I need a different color for signature and
for quoted text (even) - as they call it in TB! Beta/9.

Now I am in a editor window and my signature has the same
color as the regular text. And the test text:

  Sorry, it's just a test...

 also has the same color as quoted text (odd) - but it
 should have a different color - as quoted text (even). Hope
 it's clear enough...
