Preliminary testing/review of UIO

[James William Yoon]

Hi Heidi and Jon,

I've done a run-through of UIO with and without preview (all testing through
Safari 5), and have come up with the following list of tweaks to be made:

FullPreviewUIOptions
- Focus highlight on slider when using mouse shouldn't be there
- When using keyboard to move slider, it affects the preview window if the
slider is at the very end
- A bit more room (about 6 pixels) between the section headers ("Text and
display", etc.) and the controls would be good
- Vertical-center alignment of control labels with drop-down menus
- Once min-width is reached (~960px), introduce scrollbars, not wrapping
- Buttons should have a light-grey (say, F0F0F0) background
- Buttons should be left-aligned with the preview

FullNoPreviewUIOptions
- Section headers ("Text and display", etc.) and controls should line up
(currently, controls are lower than the headers)
- Vertical-center alignment of control labels and controls
- Once min-width is reached (~960px), introduce scrollbars, not wrapping

"Make inputs larger"
- Double the dimensions of the checkboxes
- Could we make the drop-downs bigger too? (until we get the rich ones
working fully)

"Simplify layout"
- Yikes... this needs a bit of work on the FullPreview and FullNoPreview
versions.

"Show table of contents"
- Add space between end of TOC and header (say, 24px)

I'll do another run-through with the fat panel when you give me the heads
up.

You guys are doing awesome. This is really great stuff!

James
