I love that TGD demonstrates some cool UI flair, like the 3D button effect... some project should be pushing the envelope there.

However, I don't think TGD should be that project. IMO, TGD

  • should be a showcase for the default TG look & feel
  • any look & feel that the TGD maintainers really think is needed to make TGD better should be treated as high-priority feature requests for TG v2

List of current things I see TGD doing that are counter to the built-in v2 look & feel

  • Button shadows
  • Centered dialog titles
  • Different line styles in dialogs
  • Quit key is CTRL-Q not Esc

I agree this makes sense, although I did have fun making the drop shadows.

The one thing that I do not want to loose is the start screen which was modelled after visual studio codes Start screen with just the most likely commands on it.

FWIW, see gui-cs/Terminal.Gui#3376

Note that the way this will work is you could have a TGD Theme.
