First, why are the rounded tabbed corners so jagged? Please tell me there
will be some anti-aliasing done before released. It looks God awful all
jagged like that.
Second, what the heck happened to the idea of a Tab pane? I can only see one
tab as I am editing. To switch files, I actually have to pull down a list
and look then select the window? This is a lot less productive than using a
tabbed pane. I realize sometimes you can have so many tabs open that you do
have to scroll, but the majority of the time this is not the case. What was
wrong with the multi-line tabbed pane that Swing provides? Can't SWT do
something similar, where by I can define how many rows I want to see? So
what if it takes a few extra lines of screen real-estate!
What's up with some of the buttons appearing on the side, then disappearing
until I need them. I much prefer the button panel above the tabs to quickly
select items.
I am not opposed to new UI looks, I rather like the skinning feature of many
apps. But these few things in my opinion have turned me off to Eclipse.
IntelliJ is starting to look more attractive again even at $400 a pop.
Please at LEAST make the new UI an optional feature and do NOT force it upon
us! Many of us will not like it.
Thanks
