If you were going to change the interface this much

Postby T_llguy » Thu Aug 04, 2011 8:55 pm

Why not include an option to go back to 5.59 view? I tried to watch the tutorial to go back to 4 but you assume I know what this tab is and if I don't get it right on the first shot I can't change it.

Now I'll spend too much time on something that could have been added, would you like version 5 interface or 6?

They can't be made the same so, it's sort of a pointless exercise. They share nothing in common other than they both use tabs. Everything else in the GUI is different. I can make it sort of look like 5.59 in fact, the default tabs are pretty close to the default 5.59 look.

What are you trying to do?

I was trying to get back to what it looked like in 5.59, but after many failed attempts I'm trying out the tabs. So far so good after I saw that I couldn't sort the groups list, couldn't get the tutorial translated to a working model so I'll stick with tabs.

I double posted would you delete the other post?

Thanks for the help

Just make sure you don't close the search tab or the post lists won't pop up in the proper place.
