Feature request: make About splash screen clearer to close
Help -> About brings up a splash screen that locks the app until it is clicked upon. Without context, for example if you went back to the viewer after a while, it is very unclear that this is a popup that needs to be clicked upon, and instead often seems like part of the page.

Re: Feature request: make About splash screen clearer to close
This seems like a quibble. Do we have to have a close button on everything?
Try pressing the Escape key. You can prevent it from showing up on startup by clearing the option in preferences, general, then you never need to see it again if you don't want to.
The Adobe Reader and Foxit Reader splash screens are the same too. They also have no close button.

No, I never said anything about a close button IIRC. There are other ways, such as --

-- Adobe Reader's splash screen's shadow 3D effect makes it clear it's a popup, unlike this one (dont know about Foxit). Anyway, now that I know what it is and how it looks like, I wont get stumped, but it was just a suggestion for you know, improving the look and feel.
