Hi syrel

I know I wrote some first versions of moose long time ago and I often work in the dark on the boring things like making
sure that the configurations work. You know the stuff that nobody get fame to do.
Now when the user interface systematically alienates the user, it gets really annoying.

Hi all,

I just want to remind, that Moose is not about colors, icons and arrows - it's about data, visualization and research. It's open source and everyone can improve it. Not all programmers can draw amazing Apple/Windows/Ubuntu/whatever like interface parts.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi,

Thanks for the concrete points. I will follow up with another email.

Hi all,

here are my two cents on what can be improved given the screenshot:

- scrollbars up/down buttons don’t have the arrows. There is no way to distinguish between the slider and the button. See the list of classes for an example. This is really annoying.
- buttons don’t have borders that outline them. In my opinion, a convention that has been used since more than 20 years should not be broken just like that.
- drop down menus don’t have an icon in their drop down box.
- the entire group of ‘groups, hierarchy, class side, comments’ is ugly with all the spurious white lines
- the white border on the left and right of the window is annoying. It should be or a thicker gray window border, or the widgets should go out to the end.

To be positive: the border around the drop down menus makes them much better than before.
