Originally posted by HyperHackerLet's face it - if you're accustomed enough to anything you'll find other stuff weird. Nevertheless, discounting even this effect, I used Photoshop and Imageready both around a year each to do literally everything in, yet I thought after using PSP for a week that it was much better, which is why I like it so much. Not because it inherently supports a lot more functionality, but because it does what it does in a way that pleases me more than the alternatives.Originally posted by FreeDOS 1) The 'grey useless window' is part of the MDI interface... thingamajig. Blame Microsoft. 2) Bullshit. I know of -continents- newer than Photoshop 5. Compare with Photoshop CS or PSP 9 and then we'll talk. |

As I read stuff, the useless grey window I mentioned was a workaround to a Windows 3.1 limitation back when Photoshop ran on that, the Mac version never had it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pscs_cameraraw.jpg Not the dialog being demostrated, but the main Photoshop window which parents all image windows.

I don't see what's so useless about that... It avoids the need to have all the PS windows scattered about mixed in with other windows, and helps keep speed up and memory usage down by not having to redraw anything but a solid patch of gray below them. Also, lol @ the thread title. Maybe we should get back on topic here? (edited by HyperHacker on 02-16-05 06:52 PM) |

Originally posted by FreeDOSAlready told you. "The 'grey useless window' is part of the MDI interface... thingamajig." Since you're so keen on Wikipedia - as am I! - here's their take on it. I'd also have to second your theory. When you minimize something in Windows 3.0 (the first Photoshop version for Windows (2.0) came out in 1991, and Windows 3.1 came out in April of 1992), it became a 32x32 icon, and Photoshop with more than a few windows would mean a lot of icons. People didn't have big screens back then, so it'd mean a lot of icons on the desktop. Which is why the Program Manager used MDI, for example, to begin with. And yes, let's get back on topic. |
