>eg: To create an acceptable graduated shadow (although obviously horribly >inefficient) for the BScrollView B_FANCY_BORDER or whatever: [cut] The problem is: Can we all agree on a given design, different from the R5 one? No. I don't like the supplied screenshots, for example. So, as we (not me) already decided much time ago (at least, IIRC), OBOS R1 will look as BeOS R5. Moreover, isn't just a matter of changing a few lines. Yeah, for the scrollbars, maybe, but have a look at some more advanced controls... you need to change the drawing mode for all the states of those controls, and you need to have a consistent look. So, my opinion (which probably doesn't count so much) is: let's stick to the R5 visual design and let's get this thing done. --------------------------------------------------------- Incontri: amicizie, relazioni, trasgressione http://incontri.supereva.it/cgi-bin/index.chm?partner=904 messaggio inviato con Freemail by www.superEva.it ---------------------------------------------------------
