The State of Things to Come

Remember last year I posted a mock screengrab of a beta version of Domino Designer? Well, it appears I wasn't far off the mark if this screengrab of things to come is anything to go by.

Note the little down arrow by the bookmark in the real thing. Hopefully there's a simple way to remove the a database from Designer without being prompted (I'd link to my original moan about this, but can't find it). Whether or not there are any actual improvements remains to be seen. To me it just looks like a new skin on an old product.

I like yours better - the hierarchy pane is a nice touch and would be a great improvement over the Reference tab that sits with the object explorer in the current build.

They are using Eclipse for the next version, which is cool - actually really cool if you know how to do eclipse plugin development... it could be the begining of semi-open sourcing the toolset... a long needed step.

Looking at both, why do I get the feeling the authors of the new verison have too? ;-)

My understanding is that the eclipse based designer client wil be the version after Hannover. So it's still some way off.

How about some basic improvements. E.g search a view in the client, and sort the results by column..

:(

Basic stuff like this frustrates my users...

Actually, if you look at Marybeth Raven's blog, there are goign to be a lot of changes made to the search in the upcoming release, among many other changes and (hopefully) improvements.
