Total Commander

I’ve made a mock-up of what I think is a better layout of the “Choose command” dialog. You can read my motivation here:

and here’s a full display:

Here’s the description, copied verbatim, of what I’ve done:

Here’s a mock-up of an improved “Choose command” dialog for Total Commander. Notable changes is the new placement of the “OK” and “Cancel” buttons at the far right lower edge, making the dialog shorter and more unified. The filter edit-control has been moved slightly downwards to align better with the buttons and to keep a unified distance between controls. Same goes for the category list, which has been somewhat shrunk, horizontally. Finally, the “Nr” label has been moved to align to the left with its column’s content and all the colons in the column labels have been removed to remove unnecessary clutter.

I agree there is room for fine adjustments in some dialogs and am not against changes.

But I strongly assume the positioning of the OK and CANCEL buttons is intentional, because of the additional buttons that appear wehn you select the category 'usercmd.ini'. If Ok and Cancel would be in the same line as those, all the buttons wouldn't fit into the minimal width of 640 pixels.

Yes, that's exactly the problem - the dialog would have to be soo large that it wouldn't fit on a 640x480 screen (important for SAFE mode).

Yes, I now realized that. Still, the other points remain valid, I think.
