Hi all,
LookEnhancements version 19 is now on http://squeak.saltypickle.com. In a moment of inspiration this morning I added a fix per Stephan Ducasse (to make Monticello tool windows follow suit with respect to the buttons). I also added a nice mouse over highlight effect to the buttons. In this case PluggableButtonMorph was modified. I did not modify SimpleButtonMorphs for the time being.
Let me know what you think and if you think we should open this package to community editing or inclusion in the base image. Right now keep any comments coming -- I'll try to keep on top of the suggestions that fit the style I'm trying to put in place.
Regards,
John
Thanks john For me the color when buttons are selected (not mouse over) like the class/instance button is not string enough sometimes I do not see well if I'm browsing instance or class side.

I made a suggestion in [1] on how to make pinned menus a little bit more usable. Maybe someone has an idea for other images for the push-pin and pinhole that fit better to the new LookEnhancement Style?
Regards, Alex
For me I noticed that I was confused by the shading of the buttons when you cannot use them. It was clear and I kept trying to push on them, so the message is was a success. :)
What I would love is to have another color than the pale green one for the browser. May be having a simpler color scheme would help unifying the look. I liked blue/orange look on my mac: blue for the usual stuff and orange for the selection (and not pale pale as the default is)

I like your suggestion. It's a logical improvement.
From a UI standpoint, the pinhole isn't especially intuitive. But it works, and I regret that I don't have a better suggestion to offer. Let's keep thinking about the visual metaphors.
