McIDAS-V Team Meeting Minutes - August 9, 2007
Talked about the following items in the User Interface --
Toolbar
- can change sizes and configure the location of buttons
- open source icons from the tango project
Bring window to the front
- hard to see which window is highlighted (JonB will make the color a preference
for better visibility)
Show dashboard
- currently not working (BruceF will work on this)
3 panels
- the left vertical bar and the legend "should" apply to the highlighted
panel (BruceF will look at how difficult this is to do)
- also note that the word "Displays" on the right was changed to "Legend"
