This not necessarily true. If the GUI designer is designing an app aiding in translating movies then he can deduct from the target user group that such a dialog box should not be shown. The translator using the app must hear see/hear all words. GUI designers always design for a well specified target group. With a well defined user group there is rarely a need to guess what the user of an app will want, the GUI designer knows what the users will want. But there are always exceptions and corner cases of course... / Martin -- My GIMP Blog: http://www.chromecode.com/ _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
