Godfrey Ultimatesoft | Hi All
Just playing around with EWB V2. Very easy to use although I have not done much yet. Some questions: I know you can run the project in a embedded browser from within the IDE. Is there a way to run it in a external browser window, without having to open the project folder and run the HTML file? Looking for a simple tutorial to change the color of a button? Thanks Godfrey |

Thanks Tim I am using EWB 2 on my laptop with a 15" screen. The icons on the component toolbar are quite small. Do they get bigger on a larger screen? Godfrey |

Project treeview could be a bit bigger to fill surrounding area. These are just minor suggestions that do not affect the use of the product. I suppose most people nowadays use much bigger screens.

Me, I upgraded to a new screen, and more recently bigger still (I have two, but like to develop on the smaller one for some reason...). Anyway, a laptop user can't change so easily, but perhaps could use an external. The icons themselves do not get bigger - and to do so would be a 2.1 or later change I suspect. More important things to do. But it does raise an interesting thought - could the IDE have a "design mode" where the current designer and the component toolbar are the only things visible. All the screen, just layout. Hmm, except you'd want the property inspector, but that could float perhaps. Anyway, it is a fair issue, but it is also not easy to fix. I keep thinking that Visual Studio is too busy in its panels, but I'd not want to remove any of them. |

Oh, and don't try a 4K monitor without very careful testing, and never with another non-4K monitor alongside. Windows 8.1 just can't hack it at the moment. |

<< Attached is a screenshot.

The general idea is that one should be able to get all of the information that they need about what/where everything is in the main view without having to drill down to other dialogs. So, the same principle applies to the Object Inspector and the DataSet Manager. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
