GUI design is unclear, could be improved alot

Post by marf999 »

the design of the pchelpware 'viewer' program need a bit of reorganisation. In that one viewer screen, one can do a few functions, and certain fields are only relevant to certain functions. It really obfuscates what the functions are if the fields are not greyed out appropriately.

one can start a viewer, create a server, test a repeater.
Functions should be chosen with option buttons, and irrelevant fields should be greyed out. Those are 3 separate functions. I haven't done much with the repeater. But certainly starting a viewer and creating a server are very separate and have thier own relevant fields.

Also, the alias textbox is most misleading, since i think it's just the subdirectory where the server exe is created. and i think it's irrelevant to when the viewer is started. I could check that again. But that's the sort of thing i'm talking of too. It isn't greyed out for irrelevant functions, and it isn't named well either. Alias sounds like a username that has to go with the password.
