Description Jiri Skrivanek 2003-10-30 10:14:16 UTC

It should be defined how to switch from joined
(aka MDI) to separated (aka SDI) mode. It used to
be in Options and Setup Wizard. Also names of
modes/states should be changed.

Comment 1 jrojcek 2003-11-10 12:40:52 UTC

Modes would be switched through the Setup wizard. We should only use a
different names for SDI/MDI modes than we used before.

I recommend:
- Compact Windows Mode
- Separate Windows Mode

Alternative names would be:
- Joined, Tabbed, ?Tiled? windows mode for MDI
- Detached windows mode for SDI

John, would you recommend something different?

Comment 2 jrojcek 2003-11-10 14:55:27 UTC

Peter, please change the names bundle values before the merge.

Comment 3 Peter Zavadsky 2003-11-12 10:14:08 UTC

Fixed in [trunk]

core/../ui/Bundle.properties 1.60

Comment 4 Jiri Skrivanek 2003-12-08 16:05:58 UTC

I was changed in the Setup wizard but in the Options it is still only
temporary.

Comment 5 Peter Zavadsky 2004-01-05 15:00:51 UTC

The temporary node is removed from options now.

Comment 6 Jiri Skrivanek 2004-01-06 11:25:28 UTC

Verified in build 20040106.
