Description Simon Archer CLA 2004-03-27 15:18:39 EST
Please add a preference to allow me to choose between the old look of Eclipse 
2.0 and the new look of Eclipse 3.0.  I'm almost certain that others are asking 
for this, but after searching I could not find a matching bugzilla entry.

Windows XP shipped with a new look, but I hate it and am pleased to have the 
choice of using the old Windows 2000 look.

See bug 52780.
Comment 2 Kim Horne CLA 2004-03-27 17:45:56 EST
Have you tried M8?  The default settings for M8 are closer to previous eclipse
incarnations than the previous "new look".
Comment 3 Simon Archer CLA 2004-03-28 18:20:49 EST
Yes, I've tried M8.  I still prefer the older look.
