Reducing the border works here too. To have the blue border on each side of
the control, we need to make the control bigger. For example, cbSourceType
and cbTargetType have 12 for width. With 14, they show the bottom highlight.

Ahh, yes, that got it :-)

Thoughts? Aside from that, I think that one is ready to go - and
should set the standard for the following dialogues :-)

There's still one thing that bothers me. The "Use replication" label seems
closer to the left side of the window's border.

Yes, I think it might be a little low as well.


I'll see what I can do to make it prettier.

And I need to check the border and width changes on Linux and Windows.

One side effect - it's causing 'disappearing comboxbox' syndrome on
Mac now - see the attached screenshot. Resize slightly, and all is
fine.


OK, will do.

Getting these right is really tiresome isn't it? I think it will be
well worth it though - your effort is definitely appreciated.


Yes, it is tiresome. Changing something can bork the entire dialog. Making it pretty on one platform can bork it on the two others. Not sure I like the crossplatform capacity anymore :)

Anyways, I just hope I don't annoy anyone with so many mails and attachments. I'm thinking of putting a tarball somewhere with all the last changes instead of sending multiple patches on this list.
