The current implementation of sidebar gadgets includes a very problematic design issue. Clicking the 'x' next to the title of the gadget uninstalls the gadget. There is no pop-up warning, just bam, gone, uninstalled.
In application design, the 'x' button functions as the "close" button. It should *not* uninstall the sidebar gadget. Clearly there is a lack of some sort of management panel for sidebar gadgets which would allow the user to uninstall the gadget. At the least, there should be a pop-up warning that rather than simply "closing" the gadget, it is being uninstalled. Merely for illustration, in iTunes the 'x' does not even close the application, it minimizes to the tray (in Windows). So here we are presented with a massive divergence in two instances of the 'x' button, one where it minimizes your application to the tray, and the other where it completely uninstalls the gadget. Both are questionable design decisions, but the uninstall is by far more egregious. Please address this issue. <https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_umbWRatiImE/TYjYn2690AI/AAAAAAAAAAU/yvlgRm-m6aM/example2.png> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
