Which View is the Active One
« on: September 25, 2006, 01:58:38 pm »
I am always using 2 (split) views.
It is always hard to find out which one it the active one.
It is not an intuitive thing. I am always carefull before clicking an action, because it could be for the wrong view.
Please consider a kind of indication, different color, semi-greyed-out layout to make it more user friendly.

Yes. So it does. I did not know that untill now.
I could get used to this .....
First reaction is that the active window is lighting up, but it is just the other way around > it is greyed out.

It is better, surely.

I will let you know if this is sufficient.

If other people have an opinion about it ...... please let us know.
