Hello,

i notice a new interface has been done and it's so nice. I have an idea, why don't the text colour of disable subcription ("Last download: xx/xx/xxx xx:xx (Success)") gray too? So it's much easier to know which one disabled. And maybe enable filter places first places (sort alfabetical), it's may look like about:addons at firefox.

Thanks

Small gripe, not sure what should be done about it...

When all groups have been removed from the custom filters tab the whole section is blue when click selected. Perhaps when it is empty it should not be possible to select it ??

For me it works. Is your list sorted maybe? Then it would be pasted into a location you might not expect.
Ignore the paste thing, wasn't looking in the correct place.

the filter preferences window opens up but the concerned rule doesn't get selected instead the whitelisting section does which is at the top.
Yes, I can reproduce this, will look into it.

You are apparently using a non-default Firefox theme. That's a standard <xul:splitter> element in a (quite as standard) <xul:dialog>, it shouldn't have a different background. Please notify the author of your theme or tell me which theme it is so that I can write him.

You can sort by the "Enabled" column, simply click it.

Yes, it's ugly, I know. I looked into improving this a while ago but didn't find any good solution, will check again later.

Wladimir, is there possibility the boxes to be in the same line? It bugs me a little bit... Although, I don't spend hours looking on that spot, but still... :)

Generally, I really like the new UI and I'm pretty sure you will make it as much functional as it could be.

@...s: Thank you, I sent him a mail.

@Deo Domuique: Unfortunately, I don't think that vertically aligning the filters list and the tab box is possible. I might try some tricks to make this look better but right now it isn't my top priority.

@...s: Already got a response from the theme developer, he promised to fix this in the next update.

It's not like what i mean (not the filter), it may short filter sucription (left tab) by enabled like about:addons at firefox.

I found something, if we "Edit filter in effect...." it's not selecting the filter anymore but select the top filter.
