Slightly neater error box

[Vadi]

I'm not sure if we have any designerly types about, but what do people think of rounded corners on the error box:


(it'll also use your system-preferred font instead of a hardcoded one)

Are you doing that with CSS or is that an image?

[Vadi]

The new one is all CSS:

Code: Select all

QFrame#notificationArea {
  border: 3px solid;
  border-radius: 6px;
  background-color: rgb(255, 254, 215);	
}

Very nice Vadi,
but I would also change the border color to the same color as the image. Give it red.

Code: [show] | [select all] lua

QFrame#notificationArea {
  border: 3px solid #b70808;
  border-radius: 6px;
  background-color: rgb(255, 254, 215);   
}

What about the other two possible icons:

Vadi,
I like all three. I'd say the triangle with the explanation point would be like informational message only. The "X" in the red box is used for error only. The blue i is also good for informational. As for look I think the yellow triangle goes better with the look of mudlet

No, no... all 3 icons are possible to be used in that dialog. Not all are red, so having a red border for the blue information or the yellow alert wouldn't make sense. It's not possible to determine which one is used when it is, though.

That makes sense. By the way, I am designing the gate image that you asked for. Just started today.. should have a few designs by Saturday
