Ugly disabled buttons

Adrian Lienhard
The disabled buttons look ugly with the new strike fonts. Does  
somebody know what the reason is and how to fix it? We cannot ship  
Pharo like this...

Cheers,
Adrian

That's the fuzzy label of Polymorph. It sort of works with true-type
fonts, but makes the bitmap fonts unreadable. I don't like it in any
case, have never seen a user-interface using something like that. Why
not just dim the color?

Of course fix the font problem, however I would vote more for sorting out the ugly buttons in the first place - they look very dated and clunky. I particularly like how when you maximise the browser the height of the buttons gets bigger (taking up more precious vertical space).  I wish we had a combination of Tabs and some proper toolbar buttons to make it look more visually appealing.
