Apple's latest developer seeds of Tiger have the Apple menu in the same location as our 'Foot' menu, but they've highlighted the menu by making it twice as wide as the Apple icon itself and giving it a coloured background. Screenshot: http://assets.bravenet.com/common/images/tigerbar.png This might work for the window-selector applet as well - make it wider and highlight it. Both of these menus should be nice, big targets - users shouldn't have to parse text to figure out where their apps are. I think this change would be a great way to reduce wordiness in the Menu Bar applet. -- Gabriel Bauman <gabe bravenet com>
