Hi devs,
You can see the proposal for the new skin at
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/Skin20P1
Comments, opinions and implementation help are welcomed :)
That looks light and clean, it's good to see a nice, simple look
without
many decorations.
Some things are missing, though:
* there's no link to Administration;
* I see no way to switch to another language.
Also, some more improvements need to be included in this new skin,
other
than just a lighter appearance. For instance, the menu needs to be
reorganized:
* PRINT has been a wrong term for a very long time, and needs to be
changed to EXPORT
* I'm not sure we need both VIEW and SHOW; maybe they could be
combined?
VIEW: Document | Wiki code | ...
* WATCH is an entry for which the actual usage is ambiguous (at
least in
my opinion). To make it more clear, I'd propose:
** to break the entries from the WATCH menu in 2: the one related to
the page stays in the page menu, while the "Watch list management"
will
appear next to "Administration" (probably someplace at the top)
** to make it more clear whether the current document is being
watched or not, an empty or full star icon (symbol often used for
"favorites") can be placed next to the text.
The office import entry is also strange in its current location.
I think JV had done some proposals on the toolbar entries at one
point. JV?
Note that Cati's proposal was done not to change too many things from
the current skin since it needs to be agreed and finalized in the 2.0
time frame.
Thanks
