Sponsored by BMT Micro Show your OS/2 spirit with Captain Warp T-shirts https://secure.falcon-net.net/BMT/order1199.html --------------------------- WarpCast --------------------------- Source: Richard Castle (dialogenhancer@bmtmicro.com) Moderator: Trevor Smith (editor@os2ezine.com) ---------------------------------------------- With the release of Netscape Navigator 4 for OS/2 in the last couple of days for public testing the OS/2 community was finally graced with a more up to date browser to cope with modern web navigation. Unfortunately, as with the previous version (2.02), the dialog boxes remain ugly, unorganised and waste valuable screen space. Thankfully, the new Navigator subsytem can be modified unlike previous versions, and as a result, the Dialog Enhancer team is currently working on updating all of the dialogs used. Areas being addressed are : # Size of dialogs significantly reduced. # WarpSans used instead of Helvetica. # All controls changed to Dialog Enhancer standard size. # Icons to improve clarity of dialog boxes. Expect to see a beta test containing the patch within the next fortnight, before that, we would like to hear from users about areas of the browser that need to be addressed, and any images that need to be tweaked. The project is quite large so all comments are welcome.
