</div>What we're trying to create here is essentially an in browser theming<br>
IDE. The control panel doesn't really seem the right place for it -<br>
you want to use all of the space available and once we have CMSUI I<br>
don't think it will work terribly well in an overlay. Once we have a<br>
theme debugger it would be good to integrate that too...<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It can take up the full width. I think the control panel is the appropriate place for it right now. Maybe with p.a.cmsui it needs to be tweaked a bit, but actually I think this is the type of use case p.a.cmsui is going to have to be able to accommodate.</div>

If this IDE was completely independent of the Plone UI then using<br>
something like YUI or jQueryUI wouldn't be a problem. I imagine it<br>
would be a simple three panel thing with a tree view file manager on<br>
the left, a tabbed editor in the main panel, and on the bottom a panel<br>
to show the results of executing the transform or display the log from<br>
the diazo compiler.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>It's jQuery based now with a few plugins (filetree, prompt, etc). Those resources are deliberately not in portal_css/portal_javascripts, and clearly we can use more libraries if we warrant.</div>
