Ugly tab selection

Post by Chris Wood »

Am I the one who thinks that weird tab selection indicator in greenish-yellow is REALLY ugly?

Whatever it was before (ie. when it was still called TrackerV3), it was better.
test everything. hold on to the good.

Why don't you setup a nice color for the open tab text and background.
Nothing wrong IMHO with that line.

BTW: Did we already have tabs when it was still called TV3?

Well, I like the golden (not greenish something) lining on top of the tabs. But definitely its a matter of personal choice hence you find it disgusting. But going with the fact that all other colors are configurable, maybe we get an option to change that line too. But to me its a trivial visual thing.

Yeah, it is trivial. But XYplorer is weird in so many ways, this is just another straw to burn :p

Weird?? Well, then please report them with valid reasons. I am sure lot of us are bent upon making XY better for ourselves. Persoanlly, i think theres a thin line between weird and unique.

So how about an option on Config - Color tab under "other" to define this?
That way users could pick whatever they want....
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.
