RE: Let's discuss this.....
Well, look like I hit the nail on the head here.
I find this a rather interesting discussion.
Of course there is more to designing software then the technical part, that's obvious.
But there is more then just the graphical part too.
A further point of interest may be the way you position items on forms. I saw a lot of forms on the screen-thread that had many field in sight. One could also decide to make more use of A5's possibilities to avoid this, for instance by using conditional fields.
In that way you can avoid that the user feels himself 'taken by surprise'once he glances at the form.
I don't know how your experiences with users are, but it seems to be a more-and-more spoiled kind of person.
He/she is interested to look at it at a glance, and there already decides wether your app is too difficult or not.
You might disapprove of this (I do) but nevertheless that's what you are confronted with.
So I always try to make things as easy as possible, avoid forms that are too filled with stuff, rather make it more then one form if necessary or use conditional fields.
One thing about the colors:
Indeed the color possibilities are a litte poor.
Full pantone-support would be great, but, what do you know, we don't have it!
I agree with this though.
Last thing to enter in the discussion:
Why on earth is A5 that static?
Nothing moves there.......
I mean, just guess what little use of Flash technology could do with any of your apps ???
What do you think about that.....think about it, Flash technology menu's.......
Looking forward to more contributions of any colleagues!
Kind regards,
Marcel
