Bug 23787 [Properties dialog] Project Properties -> Info page should not use text fields
Reported: 2002-09-18 16:25:15 | Status: resolved fixed

Integration build 09/17. Looks bad on all motif platforms. - select a Project, right-click -> Properties - on the subsequent Info page the read-only fields (the values for Path, Type, etc.) are created as read-only Text fields instead of Labels. I guess this is so that their values can be selected and copied by the user (?) - this looks fine on windows, but on motif these text fields all get automatic borders, which identify them as user input targets. Additionally, on Solaris/AIX/HP-UX these fields have different coloured backgrounds which make them stand out much worse
