I don't understand what you mean by "hierarchical".tallboy wrote:I had hoped for some of the same functionality in MMview, but it is of course not hierarchical.
That's your job: Choose a better GTK theme. Lucid by default uses Stardust, which indeed makes is hard to detect any difference between a focussed and not focussed selection. Lucid comes with GTK theme chooser and GTK theme maker. For me I changed selected text to bright red (see my screenshots) and have no difficulty to figure out if the Places pane or the file list has focus, but this is a global change and I have no business to interfere with a user's preferred GTK theme.tallboy wrote:I miss a better indication of which window having focus, Places or files.
Then don't use a mouse. You can operate MMview only with keys.tallboy wrote:I also find the use of both keys and mouse a bit distracting

To get a feeling of the program, I unintentionally ended up in /root/Choises/MIME-types/ and scrolled down to application_vnd.ms-work, and used Ctrl-F5 to see the contents. The file is empty, but to my surprise Abiword opened
Merriam-Webster dictionary present a definition of hierarchy as a graded or ranked series or a hierarchy of values. Wrong. None of them uses gtkdialog.stemsee wrote:Pinch to zoom in/out works in geany and viewnior and browsers so teir gtkdialog source code must already be modified, right?
For Lucid users this would be close to impossible as neither the update utility nor the database are included. And for updating the mime-types of directories and symlinks this may not even be sufficient. File must be clever enough to know what a directory is. No need for a database but maybe a recompilation as musher0 suggested? Who knows. Bottomline: this mime stuff is not trivial and I don't expect users to tinker with these files. If Lucid can't be changed, then MMview must change. I like Lucid and I'm pretty confident that I can adapt the script to Lucid's quirks, maybe not 100% but almost. If the changes don't affect overall performance I will do it. A new challengesome1 wrote:There are ways to update the mime-database -
and for USER to apply his/her own types.
The easiest solution with the best performance possible is no theme at all.
