Horrible GUI

Feedback Type:  Review

Contributed by: binosama Thursday, April 20 2006 @ 11:03 AM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

Not a bit according to Apples requirements and what one expects when using a Mac.
This would enven spoil OS 9.

 

And many bugs, some already for long time (Scrolling, positioning of lines, ...).

 

Instead of implementing again and again more or (mostly) less useful/properly working features, the author better should implement some basic tools an in first line care about the bugs and - I really don't dare to wish this - set up the app in an entirely new form ... from scratch.

For the recent form there's no future.

Agree on the GUI - Xeater

It's awful. GC is edging towards bloatware when the developer should be concentrating on refining the GUI.

There are some tasks, like batch processing images, that simply take far too many clicks. One click to turn the batch processing on. One click to select the type and dozens to edit the parameters. Missing checkboxes for resetting values or linking values. Even more clicks to finally batch process.

The app itself is butt-ugly - it takes me back to OS 9, and I didn't like OS 9.

Lots of display anomalies, GC tries to "poke through" other windows that are over it.

Eh, it's still a good app, but over-rated and in need of some solid competition.

Horrible GUI - peetz

Not a single positive note in your comments, and yet you recommend it?

Horrible GUI - afterhours

The GUI could stand almost as much improvement as your grasp of the English language. This isn't from the grammer police -- but there are solid reasons why people don't take poorly-written posts seriously. Learn to write better, then criticize.

I believe I will deserve whatever blasts anyone can come up with due to my last post :) (Hint: can YOU spot the errors?)
