Description mvinar 2003-08-21 10:53:35 UTC

User problem:
-----------------------------------
The JavaHelp window does not adhere to Java
LookAndFeel standards, the icons do not match
those in the IDE, yielding inferior appearance of
the help window compared to the rest of the IDE

User need:
-----------------------------------
--

Product requirement:
-----------------------------------
Improve the icons and visual design of the help
window.

This should be done declaratively in IDE master helpset after we
incorporate javahelp v2.0. We need to ask for appropriate icons and
create simple prototype. In jhv2.0 there is also possible to implement
own help presentation - there is chance to get rid of boring default
jh appearance.

Reassigning to the new "core/help system" owner obarbashov.
