[Bluej-discuss] BlueJ and Leopard feedback

[srs27 at kent.ac.uk]

Bruce (and the team),

The actual running of BlueJ seems to work without hitch, I've had no compilation, editing, runtime or debugging errors with my programs.

However the modified aqua theme that Leopard has, has broken the look and feel quite a bit. The buttons in the main project view and editor are no longer buttons!! They appear just as text labels, though are clickable in much the same way. Your preferences dialogue works perfectly however, assumedly because you are using standard aqua buttons (do you even have a choice?). There in may lay a solution, but aqua buttons in the BlueJ project screen and editor would be nasty in my opinion.

I discussed this with mik about a week ago at the end of a lecture who seemed to think it might be a more general Java bug/feature. Either way it didn't play too nice. The one other bug I've found is in variable entry boxes... they seemingly randomly are and aren't instantly selected for text entry (TAB button doesn't always work either) and the length is no longer sensible, sizing itself to the largest previous entry.

There's nothing show stopping though. I just completed my uni assignment with no bother.
