Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit IDEAMLCT-I-8 Drastically improve the look and feel of the Notes client, make it dramatic and modern, make it 64 bit, make it easy to upgrade to, make it perform properly..

Update the core Notes UI code so that it generates a consistent modern feel to the interface Merged

You don't need Eclipse to improve the interface.  The current basic client should be updated to a modern look this should have been done using C++

    Notes needs a fast, modern formatting engine, primarily for forms, with support for:
    - modern CSS, JS and LotusScript;
    - fast update: Back-end -> Front-end and vice versa, without having to reopen the document;
    - gorgeous, fast working components for richtext - tables, etc.;
    - opportunity to work with a collection of documents opened in UI, for example:
    Call NotesUIWorkspace.GetUIDocument(sUNID).Refresh() 'from embedded view
    - possibility of guaranteed set frame for filling (SetTargetFrame) without preliminary OpenFrameSet, etc.
    All this can be implemented without Eclipse.

    You can go from the question: Why is Java needed on the Client?
    1. Get/Put data to other system. That has already been decided by NotesHTTPRequest.
    2. Various text transcoding.
    3. Work with attachments without saving them to disk. The ability to create a file without saving to disk and attach it to a document.
    4. Smart classes for working with dxl: getting attachments, getting/replacing field values, converting RichText -> HTML and vice versa.

    All this can be implemented without Java. And Notes Client will be fast and modern again!
