Word. So a low-tech resolution is needed, then, yeah? Maybe a simple
background image and dialog color/font changes are enough to spoof
another OS.

Word. Here[0] is the requested info. It is also on the blueprint[1].
It is a .pdf. There was too much info to add to the webpage and editing
tips didn't seem to explain how to add a new page to link to (or I
overlooked it).

A document with pixel-perfect alignment/spacing callouts used to
establish designated composition of elements, and then track their
changes. A DIY visual ticket/bug/change tracker, if you will.

That's what I figured, but even screenshots of 3.14 didn't align to the
.svgs on the GNOME site. But no worries, it sounds like Glade handles
everything. Thanks for the link!
I will move on to the flow and saved parameters.
