Fell free to express everything. Not everything that is requested thought will be included because first I'll have to make sure it will be of benefit to everybody else using the theme. So here is a list of things that are already changed and will make it in 0.8.1: - Combobox fix in Open Office and other apps that use the old format option-box. - Brasero notifications fix. - Scrollbars inside OO and FF are much better looking and integrating. - Metacity improvements for dialog windows (bottom line in titlebar and modal dialogs look different). unfortunately these additions do not show when you use compiz.

I don't know why are they posponing it for so long. I have submitted it last week around Friday.

Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave User Requests
Well - mode color versions - the Blue version like Blue Wave, possibility to switch to normal ( old ) combo-box style for opening / listing options for all applications ( because is better - Gnome does not do a better thing with the new combo-boxes opening style from an Usability point of view, also the new style has not a good implementation ), possibility to choose where the arrows for scrollbars will stay ( 1 up, 1 down ; both down; etc ) Globally is one of the best Gnome modern themes - simply and elegant - not bloated, and with unity of style. Normally I switch between Redmond and New Wave, Blue Wave, and New Flow Wave which implement a colored state for the active tab which is a very good / usable addition to New Wave. 2009/7/18 Antonio ank...@gmail.com В 13:40 -0700 на 17.07.2009 (пт), Chris Tooley написа: I would like to see what you can do with a white version.

Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave User Requests
BTW I wanna say the old model was good - modern Gnome use hmm..its own model - which is not seen in any other OS or applications framework - on some stages Gnome / Gtk in fight with with science of Usability - so their UI architects can't comment in front of their developers ;) - and situation must change anyway I hope new themes will adapt the normal old style to render drop down lists - because seems to be possible to to that from theme engine. Anyway good luck ! 2009/7/18 Antonio ank...@gmail.com В 11:41 +0300 на 18.07.2009 (сб), SorinN написа: well - I mean anout behaviour not about the look - the look is OK - but think about a combo-box / or select tag in HTML on Windows and Mac OS also on KDE the drop down list come UNDER the combobox element not OVER the combo-box as is in modern Gnome apps.
