Yes, me too . I like how you can download 'syn' files to enable syntax hightlighting on loads of file types.

lol i never new you could do that

i just like the fact its got a spell checker, auto detects changes to files (handy when view gbpvr.exe.log), and can view files in binary mode.

boy have we got off topic....

Interesting how such programs do come to life, but two question for you is?

1. Is that a Image Drag and move using the arrow keys to lock the position?
2. If the answer to 1 is no, then I take it that's a X/Y plotting still on our parts?

It would be nice to drop the objects like *.jpg *.png into place, titles, buttons, arrows an etc..
Skins could be created faster than the 3 day wait, well for me then the testing it the second
part.

1. no, put i promise it will be so soon.
2. didn't understand your second question.

guys, its only the first release... i hope that it will be imporved sooner.

It does "what it can do" at this stage. I have used it to tweak a few things already. I know it is a very early tool, but it looks promising.

as the first user of my software - do you have any ides? requests? imporvent suggestions?
for now, my next goal is the abilty to use the mouse drag & drop operations to move and resize objects.

SpecialElement locations and sizes could be shown. (I don't know if contents of such can be shown positioned within because those are plugin specific right?)

DrawTextWithOutline (all the bells and whistles with that).

I don't know really what else. Will know more as this matures.

This tool will strip out comments. <!-- this stuff-->
It would be nice if it didn't.

It also "Broke" the calendar (beta) skin by making this line:
<MonthlyViewHorSpacing>70</MonthlyViewHorSpacing>

look like:

<MonthlyViewHorSpacing />

1. SpecialElement - I can make them appear with size and location, but you'll see an [X] instead of picture - becuse they're look differnet depends on the plugin. (e.g. sometimes SpecialElement named "Buttons" is look one way, and sometime it look in another way).
currently you can change those values by clicking on "properties" button at the property sheet.
2. DrawTextWithOutline - I'll add it as soon as i know how to draw an outlined text in csharp. :-)
