I'd prefer to always place the switch on the right of its label because the current layout ruins the reading rhythm - when reading left-to-right, I see the state of the switch first and only later I read what it does, and if I want to alter its state I have to go back in the beginning. If the switch is placed on the right, I read the label first, then see its state and if I don't like it, I can change it right away. This is what's used in every UI with switches I've ever seen, so consistency is also a factor here.
The same applies to checkboxes, although in case of checkboxes the current layout might be justified by the alignment. 2013/5/11 Daniel Fore <dan...@elementaryos.org> > Okay guys this is really rough and the icon is blurry etc, but just an > idea. > > > On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 4:21 AM, Manish Sinha <manishsi...@ubuntu.com> > wrote: > > I am not very convinced by moving this in the center, neither moving > "Clear Usage Data" in the center. since the button is not related to the > Switch button On Wed, May 8, 2013 at 7:53 PM, Harvey Cabaguio < > harveycabag...@gmail.com> wrote: > > http://f.cl.ly/items/0K2W2C1i3t0V2Q1s0D0k/Privacy.png On Wed, May 8, 2013 > at 1:27 PM, Cassidy James <cass...@elementaryos.org> wrote: > > It's a third-party theme.
