Re: [nebula-dev] Urgent Nebula bugs to tackle?

[Wim Jongman <wim.jongman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yet, just out of curiosity: is there a particular reason why you didn't use  a custom org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog internally which takes care of all the rendering already?

Yes, I did not want a toaster dialog. I don't like them because they kill my flow, especially when the message is unrelated to the current task.

MiniMessage is right where your eyes are _and_ related to the current task (that is how I use it anyway :)

That would make the framework taking care of stuff like positioning, themabilty and so on.

That is a good point. Although Nebula is supposed to extend SWT, I don't mind using JFace. They sort of go hand in hand.

I have noticed that there's alreday some similar widget available from Nebula, i.e.. the Notifier: https://wiki.eclipse.org/Nebula_Notifier

Maybe it might be a good idea to enhance that one and make it configurable in regard to coloring and the position where it opens instead of creating another new wiget

Yes, very nice. I think these are great additions to Notifier. Notifier was one of Laurents original Opal widgets.

I will look at MiniMessage myself later.

Cheers,

Wim
