Re: [Compiz] [Bug 868423] Re: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default
I also think that one of the reasons why this was potentially confusing to new users (and should therefore be targeted for improvement instead of just tucking the icon away) is the static nature of Unity's worspace switcher icon - the switcher icon back in Gnome classic (in the bottom panel) indicated the desktop that's currently active and even showed small icons representing some applications (sort of like a small cheat sheet - "ah, my calculator is to the right"). A person could even move apps between workspaces by moving icons from there without opening to the expose. If such an icon was added to the indicator applets in Unity or the new launcher icon somehow improved to change dynamically, maybe the feature wouldn't seem so daunting to new users. As an additional bonus it would bring joy to old users.

[Compiz] [Bug 868423] Re: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default
Removing the workspace switcher in the launcher and disabling multiple workspaces should be managed separately. The option in system settings can do both, to prevent newbies from getting trapped, but for power users, most will (probably) prefer to be able to still use keyboard shortcuts and not have the icon in the launcher. Is it a bit too late to request this, since I see considerable progress on this? If it is, can this be re-considered? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868423 Title: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/868423/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I would echo Drazen's concerns. As a power user, I use keyboard shortcuts extensively and so do not need the workspace switcher icon visible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868423 Title: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/868423/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Compiz] [Bug 868423] Re: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default
I must say I agree with Martin in comment 13 on this one. Workspaces are a great productivity booster and I think the right approach isn't to hide them away from users, but to improve them. - if first-time users get confused when they open the all workspaces view, show a tooltip for the first time, explaining how to use it - alternatively, switch the right-left button behaviour so that a left-click goes back to the desktop - when testing something new, I usually start by left-clicking things The only thing that hiding the workspace launcher button achieves is prevent new users from learning about it (I find this approach of hard- coding the icon inside the Apps lens shaky at the least) and frustrate old users because it adds another thing that needs to be set up before the Ubuntu can be used normally. Also, I see this option of auto-removing all the extra desktops when removing the workspace icon as another can of worms. What if I just want to remove it because I use the keyboard shortcuts and it takes up launcher space? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868423 Title: Launcher - Workspace switcher should not be in the Launcher by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/868423/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
