second of all: the Skulpture thingy is a step in the right direction. the scrollbars are a bit big and the hovermenu-color blue is tooo dark. ( for my taste ) anyway, i am as a matter of fact experimenting with it:

That screenshot looks kind of wrong and based on an old Skulpture. Then again, I don't remember which version I uploaded last, my own version that I use is 99% production ready from visual point of view, but buggy under Linux. And no, unfortunately you can't paint hat area with Chameleon yet.

also: how can i prevent the active tab from beeing 2 pixels larger than the rest?

In Skulture you can't, it's a design feature of the theme so that active tab look visually distinct. If you don't like it, you can contact the artist of the theme. I'm just porting it to U++ because I love the way it looks, and the qr-gtk bridge does a poor job of using that theme, and that still doesn't make it available under Windows.

"It has auto completion which is better than CDT or older versions of Visual Studio" i hate to break this to you... but it's nowhere near 'Visual Assist' from wholetomato.(http://wholetomato.com/) they really have put the hammer down in terms of usuability.

Well, I did not mention Visual Assist, which is an addon for Visual Studio and absolutely mops the floor with both Visual Studio and TheIDE. But when comparing with unmodified Visual Studio, I would say TheIDE is better. Maybe you've got some macro intensive code which can confuse TheIDE.

p.s.: i still have no answer to my other posting, and i'd really like to see fonts like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helvetica or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucida_Grande in upp apps, is there really so simple way? :/

Well you have to have a little patience. Anyway, you need to install those fonts under Windows or Linux using the standard way for that system, and U++ will be able to load them. There is no way to load a font out of a file without incorporating it in you operating systems font list.
