Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Alan Horkan (horkana) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Use standard Gtk About dialog Initial Comment: Not really a bug so I file my suggestion here that Synfig would do well to use the standard Gtk About dialog. It may seem trivial but the standard dialog means that little bit less maintenance, that little bit more consistency, it provides a suitable place for a longer list of authors and other contributors such as translators and documentation. The standard Gtk About dialog also encourages good habits such as including a description of what the program is actually "About" namely 2-D Animation. Hope you will consider this minor suggestion and take it as an opportunity to cut out one more bit of custom code and save that little bit of maintenance for the drawing and animation I'm sure the users care most about. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-06-22 18:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: NO A related bug: http://sf.net/support/tracker.php?aid=1678554 I personally like the existing dialog, would rather fix the problems with it than replace it with a very unsexy dialog. It is used for the splash screen too, so we would have to add new code to go with the unsexy standard dialog. I'm open to hearing what everyone else thinks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757419&aid=1741220&group_id=144022 |
