"Why should it be wrong to place the buttons on the left side like on Mac OS X."
It isn't on the left side like Mac OS X. It's on the left side unlike Mac OS X. Here are some key differences: * On Mac OS X, the close button is still the outside button, even though the controls are on the left. * Mac OS X has always had controls on the left. They didn't suddenly move there in Snow Leopard. * Mac OS X has a universal toolbar, so the window controls aren't bunched up with the menu items. It's not just about right v. left. It's about an arbitrary change midstream that has no benefit. It's about OS X having other design decisions (not implemented in Lucid) that make a left-side control work. -- [light-theme] please revert the order of the window controls back to "menu:minimize,maximize,close" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
