Travis Cobbs Wrote:you might consider instead having a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle, and when the user either clicks on that or hovers over itI like this idea, I wanted to add 'balloons' to the gui anyway in order to improve the hint system. At that time I could upgrade this feature too.

Say a lighter blue or a shade of red, ...I'm not sure about using different backgrounds, I did a test of that (usiing paint) and it seemed very ugly to me, maybe using different text/icon colors instead would be better. I already changed the yellow into light green if the unofficial part is embedded in the mpd.
Milan Vančura Wrote:What about adding this as a configuration item of the ldraw path object: a color of background in a partbin (in addition to "Type", "Location" and "shadow"). ThenI think Willy also suggested thins at some point. Like I wrote above I could do this for the text/icon colors.
Thanks for the feedback guys.
