Re: [Vectorlinux-devel] Ideas for New Installer

[Sriram D. <sri...@gm...>]

Hi uel,
 for a while i was going thru the source code of dialog, to see how to get =
a
tabbed dialog.
so that all of the installer can be put in one dialog, and it is easy to
move between pages.
unfortunately though it can be done, i dont have the time for it.
Instead of showing one page at a time,  we could display all of the info
gathering part in one place, and then move on to a progress indicator .
right now the info gathering part is spread across several screens.
It gives a much simpler mental model to work with.
also gives the impression that the installer is small where as in reality
the number of screens can be the same.
cheers
ram
