thx John, almost all of the buttons have the same style now, nice. (I think I've only seen one exception, namely the search button in the "message names" dialog).
Unfortunately the newer version cannot be loaded anymore in a 3.7 image because of the dependency on SystemProgressMorph which seems to be new in 3.8. I don't know whether you can easily make that backwards compatible or not. I think it's not that important but would "nice to have".
Another thing that stroke me is peed... In 3.8 with the enhancement everything seems to be a bit slower than before (the UI in Squeak never was fast but I have the feeling it become slower with each new release...).
To get some numbers (they should probably be treated with care..) I evaluated "[ 10 timesRepeat: [ Browser openBrowser ] ] timeToRun" and got:
3.7 without LookEnhancement: 9674 3.7 with LookEnhancement: 12060 3.8 with LookEnhancement: 15665 3.8 without LookEnhancement: 11138
Are there any possible improvements in the enhancement?
Cheers, Adrian

In the latest edition we've made some significant rounds through various common dialogs to make the button style the same throughout. I'm always open to additional enhancements in this area if you mention what dialogs have buttons that don't align with the style.
I don't know if other people hate this look enhancements and would object to making them default, but I'd definitely like to see them in...
Thanks for your work,
Thanks!
