The 3.5 version of AW (toolbars, etc) can be viewed just by looking at the
screenshots taken from Mauz on her 2003 picture site at www.mauz.info [View Quote] elykJan 27, 2004, 2:43am

Yup those are not 3.5 features but Stacee decorating for Halloween ;)
Also notice the floating tabs, although I put mine traditionally on the left side. -- Mauz http://mauz.info johnfJan 27, 2004, 2:41pm

The floating tabs are such a pain in the ass I stopped using AW for about a
week after getting the upgrade. The toolbar is also not improved, just "different" so I had to re-learn the buttons. Not a big deal, but why oh why did they waste time making new buttons and this stupid floating toolbar, most everyone I know on the beta now runs aw exactly like in that screen shot. If you maximise AW, the tabs panel gets in the way of the viewing area and puts your view off-center, very distracting. Before one could simply turn off and on the tabs panel if they didn't want it, I see no reason to make to float and no ability to "lock" it onto the side like before. > > andrasJan 27, 2004, 7:42pm

That would have required a world server update, remember, and AWI hasn't
done that. To AWI wrolds. [View Quote] rossyboyJan 27, 2004, 8:08pm
Same here.
Though the thing about the toolbar... it opens up exciting possiblities. Custom toolbar skins can be used that are almost exactly like the old one... also, custom buttons can be added that send out SDK events - but it's really complicated.

At first I wanted the ability to put the tabs back in it's old place
however I was able to quickly adapt to the new configuration and I've found it useful to move the tabs around according to whatever mood I'm in :) Ryan |
