[squeak-dev] Some minor UI changes in the inbox

The good news is that the inbox is empty now and looking for more contributions. Keep 'em coming!

Hi all,
I've just dropped a couple of items into the inbox. Apologies in advance if there are any problems, as this is my first attempt at saving changes into a different repository than where they came from.

Morphic-MAD.203 - Hack to fix problem with rounding of buttons - I'm happy to take advice on how to address the underlying problem. I've also slightly increased the radius so that the curve is visible.

Morphic-MAD.204 and co - Selection highlighting in lists is now consistent with that in menus. I've made direct reference to Preferences menuSelectionColor - not sure if this will be seen as reasonable?


Morphic-MAD.205 fixes the mess I made of the formatting.

You should really tone down the highlight colour after loading these changes:
Preferences setParameter: #menuSelectionColor to: (Color r: 0.4 g: 0.5 b: 0.7)

Can anyone explain to me how I would add a postscript to a specific mcz? The Scripts button seems to want to add it to the full package.

Let me know if there are problems or questions.

Thanks,
Michael

Great improvements, thanks a lot!

Yes, it is reasonable.

Agreed. The default color is too aggressive against colored windows; the
toned version works much better.

That is the only way to do it. Monticello works with snapshots so
conceptually it's always covering the entirety of the code and a package
is just a snapshot at a particular point in time.
