|
|
Hi,
I have a question regarding the main interface of the program.
When I look at the screenshots on the website the menu is located on the left side of the window and all items are horizontal. However my menu is vertical! This makes navigation through different parts of the program very time consuming. Is there a way to have it horizontal?
I will include a screenshot of my current layout. (Yes, I use it on a Mac!)

Ack! I'll see if I can fix that.
And if I can't, we might be back to the tabs on the top for everything. _________________ --

thought this was intentional. Yes, it seems to be a Mac issue. This is what I see as well, although the pull down menus that pop up off the arrows are horizontal |

Well, it looks like the Mac interface standard is to have the side tabs display text sideways...and there's nothing I can do about it.
So, my options:
- Option 1: Have all tabs be on the top in all tabbed panes
- Option 2: Put the side panes back the way they were, except make them stacked rather than scrolled (that, I can control)
- Option 3: Make it a user preferences that is stored with the repository and lets you choose between option 1 and 2. _________________ --

Hehe,
I think we as Mac users are not used to bitching!
I would like to vote for option 3.
Thanks! _________________ Robert van Dijk |
