Vista making news again/Just FYI
Snit use...@gallopinginsanity.com comp os linux advocacy "Rick" <n...@nomail.com> stated in post 13s0gbsdt20l...@news.supernews.com on 2/23/08 8:53 AM: Some simple logic for you: 1) You described a more consistent user experience as something that would be "better for the user". I commented on UI components.

I think everyone now knows what I think is the biggest hole in what it offers - a consistent and well thought out UI that would go across all general tools One does not need a monster system to run it like Vista does. Thankfully, while many in COLA do not get it, other who actually understand OSS and user needs
Microsoft throws in the towel on Vista
In these cases *diversity* of look is a benefit, though consistency in UI controls is still a benefit (similar way to get to settings and to close the programs, for example). Anyway, just a thought I figured I would share... :) So.... inconsistency is very bad... except when YOU say its not. Nope... not at all.
Bill Gates embarrassed about Vista
I think all it takes is one show-stopper for Vista to be a pain. I think I agree, but I find my show-stoppers in the UI, not so much in applications that don't work. Really, though...who thought this was going to help anything? Many of the users don't care, don't understand, don't think they should have to.
Vista - is it here to stay?
I didn't say I thought they were. I asked what you thought. I know the answer. I am running KDE and Firefox right now. That's right, Rick, the Firefox folks .... How do you think those actions prevent the OSS folks from making a Linux distro with a non-fractured UI? Frankly I do not see much connection at all...

I've spent the day looking at WVT code samples, the Brasilian MWVA stuff, and some FiveWin demo links from their site.

Sorry, I just thought it would be a good idea for us to understand one another. Paul "Milan Tomes" <MilanTo...@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message Now, waiting for the user to try and do an operation before you tell them that the operation can't be done is - in some books - bad UI design.
Where an inconsistent look is good
I commented on UI components. User experience involves much more than just the UI. Correct. What things are you thinking of? ... the rest of the use experience I thought that was an open source insult. :) Since you don't think very well ... It does fit you well.. as I note, above... ... and the Snit Circus turn

GUI Migration
The changes in the UI are the results of extensive usability studies that pointed towards the design changes. It takes time for users to become comfortable with this, Some changes seem like they were semester projects in a software engineering class -- good ideas, but not much thought about reality.
Vista making news again/Just FYI
I also checked directly on a Vista box and found heavy color fringing on most of the smaller text. That's a side effect of ClearType.

WARNING >> New Ubuntu User
Why, if I change my Shell Dlg font in XP to Segoe UI, the default size is 8pt - in Vista, it’s 9pt - and that REALLY screws things up. Is there no way to set it to 8pt anywhere? Please make the hook? Would somebody please smack the person who thought that white Battery/Power and Volume icons were en vogue?
