[Paraview-developers] [EXTERNAL] Re: Using "fusion" style on OsX by default

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

I think  I am going to defer to people who use ParaView on Mac (looking at
you, Cory :) ) to investigate ways of making the UI look cleaner. Some of
my misgivings with Qt-macOS style are:

1. too much padding (look at the vertical gap here)

[image: Inline image 1]   v/s  [image: Inline image 2]

2. misaligned buttons (just look at the padding around buttons like "X
Normal, Camera Normal"

[image: Inline image 3]   v/s [image: Inline image 4]

Maybe there are things we can do that are less dramatic than changing the
default style to clean these up.

I think we should not do this too soon. It's the whole bike-shed thing --
everyone will have an opinion on this; we need to make sure we don't open a
can of worms that we cannot close :).
