- There needs to be more of a border around the panes and between the
contorls. The controls are very tight to the top, bottom and sides of
the dialog (to the extend that the "I'm active" glow around controls
is cut off on the top and right hand sides for instance. Similar
eclipsing can be seen between controls. We probably just need an extra
2d or so everywhere.

Fixed on Linux and Win32.

Yup, looks much better on Mac - in fact if anything it's gone a bit
too far the other way. Maybe try 1 or 2d less than you've done. The
SQL tab still needs similar treatment though.

See the screenshots.


Fixed.

- When resizing on the definition pane, the height of the list box
increases, but doesn't decrease, so if you shrink the dialogue again,
the controls at the bottom of the tab get hidden. The same does not
happen on the properties page where the comments textbox resizes
correctly.

I don't have the issue, neither on Linux, neither on Win32. Can you check
with this new patch? Thanks.

Yes it still occurs :-(. The screenshots show what I mean.


Hmmmm, I see... that I can't do anything till I get my Mac. I will work on it but I don't know now how to fix it.

Aside from that, it does look good. Resizing of labels in different
languages works nicely, and everything looks nice and consistent.

Nice work :-)

Thanks. But something is bothering me. The status bar on the bottom of the
window doesn't seem to work on Windows, it seems to have disappeared.
dlgFunction seems to suffer the same issue but I didn't work on its xrc
file. And it works on Linux, for each dialog. Can you check on Mac and
Windows?

It's there on the Mac (in both dialogs). I can't currently run Windows
(other tasks already running in vmware), so cannot test there atm.

A new problem on dlgCasts - the source and target type combo boxes are
invisible unless I resize(!). I only need to enlarge the dialogue by
1px or so and they both magically appear. I suspect this is unrelated
to the actual size, but perhaps we need to kick the sizers after
loading the dialogue to force them to resize everything. If memory
serves there's a recalculate function.


OK, I will write a new patch for each of them as soon as I can work on the mac mini (but first I need to buy it).
