I'm not working on it atm, so I'd say the answer is no. However, are you sure you want to try the biggest dialog in the program first? Perhaps it would be more prudent to start with one of the other unimplemented dialogs (see the xforms includes in Dialogs.C). Having said that, I have no burning desire to do the prefs dialog myself, so if you really want to, go wild :-) A few points for the budding frontends/gtk hacker: - There is some fairly dodgy code that I'd planned to go back and replace once I'd generalised it out appropriately, particularly that involving combo boxes and unit selection combo boxes in particular. In my work on the document prefs dialog, I'm moving to Gtk::ComboBoxText which simplifies matters somewhat. - I can usually be found in #lyx on freenode IRC, when I'm working on LyX. Drop by with any queries about the code that aren't mailing-list-worthy. - I've been trying to make everything as GNOME HIG compliant as possible, within the boundaries of what LyX requires. Glade is your friend. John
