Overview
When working on lazarus, certain design guidelines need to be taken into consideration. To prevent a diversity of styles and ensure the clarity of dialogs. This article tries to summarize these guidelines to help you designing. There is also a buch of screenshots, artwork and dialog information available.
Comments
What you need to keep in mind is the cross-platform nature of Lazarus. If you make all the changes you suggest, the text on the buttons won't be visible in most standard GTK+ themes, or there will be other problems. I fully support the idea of some tweaks like this, but it should be tested in Linux, Win32 and even in Mac OS X (you guys are running it in Mac OS X already, right?) before it's committed. -Tony Maro
- That's the only way to do it ;). I have patches of the different dialogs and I would encourage people to test them and post screenshots here. - Darius
