I thought the space that I had now would be sufficient, but you are clearly the counter example. > 4) The day-of-week information in the usual list layout is, I think, very > useful.

It's a trivial change - but I've heard preferences both ways. Maybe this needs to be a user specific setting after all. > 5) Whatever layout and colour scheme we change to, I think one should keep > in mind that one day we will be able to collapse the trips so that only trip > headers will be visible onscreen.

Please keep the input going. As I think you've seen, Davide's excellent proposals are starting to pay off. I tend to always push back a little (because we'll never make everyone happy), but I do try to make sure I at least try to implement the better ideas. /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
