Hello, IMO, this new feature is terrible :-) I don't like it and is difficult to understand for an user. Is not intutive. The checkboxes don't have title or something like that show what they do. Really the user want to know the hint requested by the program? If the dialog.c/panels* needs handle titlebar, resizebar,... it could be implemented in the window.c/wCreateInternalWindow function. IMO, this feature should be removed and find new ideas for the problems.
