New Look and Feel

This version of Views includes a brand new look and feel, called Views X (VX), whose primary goal is to offer a more modern presentation scheme on UNIX® workstations. The different gadgets have rounded corners, nice gradients, soft colors and generally speaking the global aspect is much more aesthetic and usual to Windows and Linux users. This new look and feel is now selected by default on UNIX/Linux workstations, instead of the Motif look and feel. However, for those who want to continue using Motif, it is possible to force the use of this look and feel. The new Views X look and feel is also available on Windows® platforms, but not selected by default.
