The buttons all look like XP. XP != Mac. Are those buttons all from Qt or something? They need native Quartz buttons/etc.	Related Links  ·   Articles on KDE on Unix and other platforms  ·   Also by Riot Nrrrd™  ·   Contact author Thread Threshold: 10 comments 20 comments 30 comments 40 comments 50 comments 60 comments 70 comments 80 comments 90 comments 100 comments 110 comments 120 comments 130 comments 140 comments 150 comments 160 comments 170 comments 180 comments 190 comments 200 comments 300 comments 400 comments 500 comments 1000 comments

That was obviously taken when the Mac style didn't work yet. This (osxtheme.png) shows a later state.

I suspect that with the KDE design it's impossible to use native Aqua widgets, because those don't allow any kind of 'themeing'. But what the hell .. KDE was not designed with Mac look and feel in mind, so it will always have "alien" UI compared to Aqua. The goal is rather to reduce the pain using it in OS X (very much like what OroborOSX did before Apple produced the "real thing"). Normal Apple users won't use KDE anyway, so I think it's less of an issue.

However, currently, none of the behavior questions have even been addressed yet, nor worked on. > Normal Apple users won't use KDE anyway, so I think it's less of an issue. Yes, but normal Mac users can use KDE /apps/ [ Reply To This | View ] Re: But the UI elements ... by ik on Friday 02/Jan/2004, @08:42 seems the shots are taken during various stages in development ... kword looks very nice [ Reply To This | View ] Re: But the UI elements ... by Jon on Friday 02/Jan/2004, @10:17 The UI elements such as tabs buttons in this Konsole screenshot are correct for Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. Tabs shown in KWord screenshot are not Mac OS X native.

I don't use OS X that much, so I'm afraid I can't tell you which app it is. [ Reply To This | View ] Re: But the UI elements ... by me on Friday 02/Jan/2004, @14:58 Heh. That's because that's a Mac app behind Konsole. Konsole is using the Windows style scrollbars.

It looks like the developer is having standard err go to the iTerm to test Konsole. [ Reply To This | View ]   The Fine Print: The previous comments are owned by whomever posted them. ( Reply )
