manage frame change
anyone object to changing the text at in the top ZMI frame to "Logged in as <user> on <machine>?" Or is there a better place to put that info? I find it useful when I've got several windows open to different servers. seb

Would the title bar be a better place (<title></title>) ? Then you don't even have to dig the body of the window up :-) In fact, how about "<machine> - <user>", that way you should even be able to get the context from whatever taskbar you have, without even having to resort to finding the window... cheers, Chris

In that vein, how about having the main frame with a title resembling "<getId>: <tabname>", that's useful if you open lots of those in their separate windows. Florent -- Florent Guillaume, Nuxeo (Paris, France) +33 1 40 33 79 10 http://nuxeo.com mailto:fg@nuxeo.com
If you want to make a quick change to the ZMI top or left pane, look at my latest PatchKit - It turns them into ZMI objects so you can customize the ZMI. (I am sure there are as many changes people want to make to the ZMI as there are users of Zope...)
