Some more ideas: - While resizing a box / object; show the current size of the object - Ditto while moving; show the current position - When selecting objects: The number of selected objects - When selecting (single?) object: It's size and perhaps position - The x,y coordinates of the mouse pointer - The unit of the coordinate system being used - If autosaving is implemented: Flash a message (e.g. "autosaving...") while/whenever this occurs BTW, thoughts about what happens if the diagram is modified at the same time as autosaving is in progress...? -+-Ben-+- _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
