I'm willing to take that hit. If it really bothers me/anyone else there is always the option to come up with a Small Icon theme like the gimp has. About the narrow toolbox: In the long term I see Dia inevitably making use of the same kind of Dock as the GIMP, although that may be delayed until the widget can be reused cleanly rather than copying a load of code (but maybe that is already possible). I see the components in the toolbox becoming dockable palettes, and I see myself docking the sheets to the Layers dialog on one side of my screen and keeping the toolbox on the other. As I have tried to explain before the Toolbox would resize more easily if the widgets for Foreground/Background colour and Line Style were seperated and reflowed as needed similar to how items in the GIMP toolbox behave. I was wondering are you switching the icons only or will there also be the theming infrastructure needed for Dia to match whatever the gimp sets as icons for Zoom, Text, Pan (have some vague idea this has something to do with registering them as being GIMP_STOCK icons but I really dont know how it works.)

Is this list available as news?
Hi everybody I thought I'd start following this list since I regularly use Dia and have some "issues" I'd like to report :-) My first question is quite simple though... is this list available through some kind of news interface, e.g. gmane.org? (I find lists much easier to work with as news) regards /Christian -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr ___ Dia-list mailing list Dia-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/faq.html Main page at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia

I hate to be contrary :), BUT gmane does have an archive: gmane.comp.gnome.apps.dia Cheers, Mike Alan Horkan wrote: On Wed, 6 Jul 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2005 20:41:06 +0200 (CEST) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: discussions about usage and development of dia To: dia-list@gnome.org Subject: Is this list available as news?

I'm quite glade I'm wrong in this case.
