[Bug 572115] Re: Brasero copy to image, select window "close" button badly named

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

- If you use Brasero to copy a disk to a .iso file, you need to select
- which file you would like to use.  In the File selector window that
- comes up the only button down the bottom right of the window is "Close".
- Now if I click that is it going to use the file I just selected, or
- revert back to what it was before I click it?  I know the answer because
- I have done it 50 odd times now, but it still annoys me every time.  Why
- not "Open", "Save", "Select" or something like that?
+ 1. Launch Brasero.
+ 2. Choose "Disc copy".
+ 3. Insert a CD/DVD.
+ 4. In the "Select a disc to write to" menu, choose "Image File".
+ 5. Choose "Properties".
+ 
+ What happens: In the resulting file selector, the only button down the
+ bottom right of the window is "Close".  Now if I click that is it going
+ to use the file I just selected, or revert back to what it was before I
+ click it?  I know the answer because I have done it 50 odd times now,
+ but it still annoys me every time.  Why not "Open", "Save", "Select" or
+ something like that?
  
  Oh while I am at it, the button to open this window is labeled
  "Properties".  Why not "Browse" or something of that nature?

[Bug 95853] Re: Add an option to get a confirmation dialog before deleting files in Nautilus

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

When an interface makes something too easy to do, it often causes
arguments like this one. One group of people gets frustrated that they
keep doing the thing by mistake. And another group of people -- for whom
"too easy" seems like an oxymoron -- can't believe that the first group
are making the mistake, so they resort to unhelpful insults. (I know
this because I was once in the second group, arguing against people who
complained that Mozilla's Ctrl+Enter keyboard combo made it too easy to
send an e-mail message by mistake.)

Adding a confirmation alert is one way to make something more difficult
to do, but it is the most crass way. A much simpler solution would be to
change the keyboard combo for sending something to the trash, so that it
requires two keys rather than one.

[Bug 495403] Re: Do not raise windows or dialogs without user input

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

This bug is invalid, because sometimes when a new window opens, you
absolutely want it to take focus from whichever window had focus before.
A simple example is launching an application: if you start a Web browser
and it takes only two seconds to open, it would be frustrating if it
wasn't focused when it did open.

The Metacity, Compiz, and kwin window managers each have a focus
stealing prevention algorithm which tries to guess whether it's
appropriate to focus a new window or not. As I wrote in bug 67476, if
you have suggestions for improving this algorithm, I suggest you work
with other interested people (such as those subscribed to the Brainstorm
"idea") on a specification with a flow chart for how it should work.
Include a description of how it would differ from the existing
algorithm, and examples of how it would do better. If you don't know
what the existing algorithm is, that should be your first step. Once
you're done, posting to the Ayatana list would be a good way of getting
your specification reviewed.

Unfortunately, most of the comments on this bug report -- including
those by jmspeex, ChrisH, Gok6tm, user2037, Michael, Thomas Folz-
Donahue, Greg K Nicholson, and avdd -- have nothing to do with the bug.

This bug report, like the Gnome bug report it links to, is specifically
about dialogs belonging to background windows. It is not about focus
stealing prevention in general. If you have suggestions for improving
the focus stealing prevention algorithm, I suggest you work together on
a specification with a flow chart for how it should work. Include a
description of how it would differ from the existing algorithm, and
examples of how it would do better. If you don't know what the existing

We are gradually fixing this with our status menus in indicator-applet.


For the reason Sebastien gave, it is counterproductive to have a single

report only if the patch that fixes a bug in one place is likely to be
reusable to fix it in another place, or if the nature of the bug
requires that multiple packages be changed near-simultaneously. Neither
are true here.

[Bug 393585] Re: Focused/unfocused selection colors are confusingly similar

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Fixing this would involve making the focused selection color
substantially more colorful than the unfocused selection color -- for
example, aubergine vs. grey, or orange vs. grey.

Unfortunately, the Light themes appear to be using the selection color
to color buttons. For example if I set the selection color to aubergine,
all buttons go purple too. Fixing that might be difficult enough to take
this out of the realm of a papercut.

[Bug 393585] Re: Selected items do not change color when window is unfocused

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

This is a valid bug, but it is a bug in various themes rather than in
Nautilus.

For example, in DarkRoom, Elementary, Human-Clearlooks, and Shiki-Dust,
the focused selection color is exactly the same as the unfocused
selection color, which is nasty.

In Ambiance, Radiance, Clearlooks, Dust, Glossy, and Human, the focused
selection color is very nearly the same as the unfocused selection
color, which is bad.

In Mist, the focused selection color is exactly the same as the
unfocused selection color, but the text color is different, which is
weird.

New Wave is the only theme I have installed where this bug does not
exist at all: the focused selection color is peach while the unfocused
selection color is grey.

The problem also occurs in Ubuntu Software Center: it is difficult to
tell which pane is focused, because the selected row in the navigation
pane looks so similar regardless.

** Also affects: light-themes (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
   Status: New

** Description changed:

+ Problem occurs with: Ambiance, Radiance, Clearlooks, DarkRoom,  Dust, 
Elementary, Glossy, Human, Human-Clearlooks
+ Does not occur with: New Wave
+ 
  For example, open a Nautilus window and select an icon.  Switch focus to
  the desktop by clicking on it.  The window is not active but the icon in
  it retains the "selected items" color.  It appears as though it is still
  selected and that it can be modified by keyboard shortcuts.  By clicking
  on an icon on the desktop it changes color to be selected an now it
  appears that two items are selected.
  
  Several times I've deleted things by accident due to this, especially
  when I was new to GNOME.  I would have several windows open with items
  selected.  I would see the item I want selected and hit the delete key
  to remove it, only to realize that I had some other window focused where
  I had deleted something else.
  
  In Windows selected items in unfocused windows turn gray.  I think it
  also adds another visual clue as to what window is focused besides just
  the title bar.
  
  Firefox and Thunderbird deliver the behavior I expect (probably because
  they are only faux GTK apps).  Select some text in Firefox and then
  focus to another window and you will see that the selected text turns
  gray, indicating it is not active.  Try that in gedit or evince and the
  text will remain blue.

[Bug 387791] Re: "Do not disconnect" and "ok to disconnect" device notifications should not use the same icon

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Notification bubbles are not a "notification system", they are just one
notification mechanism. See
 for an overview
of other mechanisms.

gnome-disk-utility used to use a notification bubble for this situation.
But with Notify OSD, when a bubble disappeared, the unmounting wouldn't
necessarily have finished yet. So we fixed gnome-disk-utility to use a
progress window instead, as it really should have in the first place.
(After all, other kinds of file moving and copying use a progress
window.)

>From the design specification for the progress window
: "The title and
icon for the progress window should be the name and icon for the
volume." For that reason, in the absence of an explanation for why it
should change icons part-way through, I'm closing this bug report.

If there are indeed "two popups" instead of one, please report a
separate papercut about that. And if the window sometimes doesn't appear
at all, please report a separate papercut about that. Either of those
situations could have made it seem as if two separate icons should be
used.

It is possible for a program to be standards-compliant and badly-behaved

(which is no use to anyone), or notifications which are too brief to

Can you explain what you mean by "Metacity menu"? Do you mean the menu

[Bug 538277] [NEW] Narrow grey strip at left and right edges of the display

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu Lucid

At every screen resolution, any background picture has a narrow grey
strip at its left and right edges.

The strips do not extend over the panels, and nor do they appear on top
of windows that overlap the left or right of the screen. Therefore it's
a problem with the background picture.

The problem occurs with a background picture downloaded from the
Internet, as well as with every picture I've tried from ubuntu-
wallpapers, so it's a bug with the display of the background picture,
rather than with ubuntu-wallpapers. Therefore I'm guessing it's a
Nautilus bug.

The color of the strip is #d9cebb (R217,G206,B187).

[Bug 530751] Re: "Battery Discharging" is a horribly worded message

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

I'm sorry I didn't see this before User Interface Freeze. I agree that
"discharging" is an unpleasant way of putting it. The original proposal
in bug 399492 didn't use that word; I don't know how it ended up like
that.

I agree with Michael that "Running on battery" is better. I've changed
it in the NotifyOSD spec.
 (But
if Ubuntu no longer diverges from upstream gnome-power-manager in
notifications, someone please tell me, and I'll remove that section
altogether. In the long run the NotifyOSD specification should be about
the notification system itself, not about the exact notifications every
program should have.)

[Bug 534477] [NEW] Closing "File Operations" into panel is redundant with minimizing

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

nautilus 1:2.29.91-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu Lucid

When moving or copying files that take a long time, a "File Operations"
window opens. This window is both minimizable and closable. Closing it
does not stop or cancel the operation; instead, it effectively minimizes
the window into a status menu aka indicator (or, upstream, into a
notification area item). While the window is open, the menu appears with
a "Show copy dialogue" item, regardless of whether the progress window
is currently focused or not.

It is not sensible design to have two different destinations into which
a window can be minimized. The usual argument here is that minimizing it
into the standard window list takes up too much space; but if so, the
answer shouldn't be to memorize a different way of minimizing it, it
should be to find a way to make standard minimization take up less
space. The extra width is not so onerous that we should delay fixing the
inconsistency until after that happens.

As I wrote in
, "You do not
need a custom status menu if: ... You just want the program to take up a
small space in the panel when minimized." It would be misleading to ship
Ubuntu 10.04 with a new design that we think other developers shouldn't
imitate.

I suggest that:
* the "File Operations" window be made minimizable but not closable
* Nautilus's libappindicator status menu be removed completely.

Making this change would invalidate bug 507486.

Hi Milo. We're using "Switch Off" because we think it's more direct and

other OSes. Other parts of Gnome have been fixed in other bug reports

So long as this item has a tooltip at all, I think we probably should
leave it as it was, "Shut down the computer". Adding only the words "the
computer" does not make for a useful explanation, whereas "Shut down the
computer" is a subtle reassurance that "Switch Off" does what "Shut
Down" used to do. Thanks!

I have experienced this problem since Wednesday 24th.

The Totem BBC plugin tries to retrieve
. On Wednesday,
loading this in a browser returned a 500 Internal Server Error. Today, I
have tried it twice. The first time it took over a minute to respond,
but eventually returned the desired programming data. The second time it
returned a 500 Internal Server Error. ("Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat) Server at
uriplay.rad0.net Port 80".)

So, I think it's nothing to do with iPlayer registration, and everything
to do with the uriplay.rad0.net server being overloaded or
misconfigured.

Here's what I did to test this:

1. Launch Rhythmbox.
2. Minimize Rhythmbox.
3. From the status menu, choose "Show Rhythmbox".
4. Bring another window in front of Rhythmbox.
5. From the status menu, choose "Show Rhythmbox".

What should happen:
3. Rhythmbox is unminimized and focused.
5. Rhythmbox is brought to the front and focused.

What actually happens:
3. Rhythmbox is unminimized but not focused.
5. Rhythmbox is brought to the front but not focused.

I don't think the label for the menu item should change.

In

I've specified: "Optionally, [an IM client] may also provide a message
source item for each person in your contact list who has not sent you
new messages, but who has connected in the past minute and is still
online. It should not do this unless it is also configured to display a

someone who has connected in the past minute but not sent you new
messages, time should be set to “connected”."

So in the case of Empathy, I think the required changes are (1) add
those items only when "Enable notifications when a contact comes online"
is checked, and (2) set time = "connected" for them.

[Bug 206547] Re: Open (but do not raise) new conversation windows automatically

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Pēteris, sorry, but you're mistaken.
 has said the same
thing on this topic since I wrote it a year ago: "When a notification is
not time-critical, and there is a relevant window to display it in,
present the notification as a banner or other text in that window ... if
the window is not currently open, you can open it automatically, in the
background to minimize accidental clicks."

Anyway, one of my colleagues has just completed a week of user testing
of the upstream version of Empathy, with 16 separate participants. We'll
publish full results in a couple of weeks, but one notable preliminary
result is that for many of the participants, when someone started a new

[Bug 516168] [NEW] "Use message indicators" is not understandable

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Empathy in Lucid has a checkbox labelled "Use message indicators".



As David Siegel just remarked to me, "I bet my grandma would really like
to click that". It's not obvious what "message indicators" are, and even
if it were, it's not obvious what "Use" entails.

Instead, the label should be more self-explanatory: "Show incoming
messages in the messaging menu".

(This is an example of why we should avoid the term "indicator"
generally: inevitably it would leak into the user interface where users
wouldn't know what it is.)

[Bug 206547] Re: Open (but do not raise) new conversation windows automatically

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Actually, it's not true that it "breaks all indicator applet idea". The
messaging menu is a useful aggregator of incoming messages, but we never
intended it as the only method of notifying you of new conversations --
it's not noticable enough for that. New IM conversations should open a
window in the background, and incoming audio/video calls should open a
morphing window in the foreground.

[Bug 388656] Re: Non-intuitive term "Move to trash"

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

In the original usability@ mailing list thread, I cited this
ridiculousness from Microsoft, and it bears repeating: "When you delete
a file or folder, the file or folder is not deleted right away."
 Whatever we do, it shouldn't be that.

This might be a case where we have to suck it up and suffer
unfamiliarity for the sake of truthfulness. Maybe, though, there are
other things we can do to make the item easier to see. One would be
shortening the menu, for example by removing the "Send To..." item, and
removing the separator between "Open" and "Open With". Another would be
putting the item towards the bottom of the menu (where a terminal item
would logically go), rather than in the middle.

[Bug 224475] Re: Pressing volume/brightness key changes window focus (e.g. makes Flash exit full screen)

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Summary changed:

- Pressing volume/brightness key unfocuses window (e.g. makes Flash exit full 
screen)
+ Pressing volume/brightness key changes window focus (e.g. makes Flash exit 
full screen)

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
+ When the brightness or volume keys are pressed on a keyboard, focus
+ changes in the current window. At its mildest, this has odd visual
+ effects. At its worst, it causes the Adobe Flash player to exit full-
+ screen mode.
  
- I went into a flash video, e.g. in youtube, and put it in full screen mode.
- When I adjust the volume, the flash video return to normal size again, 
instead of remaining in full screen mode.
+ Steps to reproduce, A:
+ 1. Start playing a movie full-screen with the Adobe Flash plug-in.
+ 2. Press a brightness or volume key on the keyboard.
+ What happens: The Flash plug-in exits full screen.
+ What should happen: It shouldn't.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce, B:
+ 1. In any standard GTK text field (e.g. GEdit or Geany), select some text.
+ 2. Press a brightness or volume key on the keyboard.
+ What happens: The selected text momentarily goes grey.
+ What should happen: The selected text stays the same color.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce, C:
+ 1. Start writing an OpenOffice.org Writer document.
+ 2. Press a brightness or volume key on the keyboard.
+ What happens: The insertion point disappears for as long as the key is being 
pressed.
+ What should happen: The insertion point keeps blinking as normal.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce, D:
+ 1. In Firefox, tab to a link in a page, so that its URL appears in the status 
bar.
+ 2. Press a brightness or volume key on the keyboard.
+ What happens: The URL momentarily disappears from the status bar.
+ What should happen: The URL stays where it is.

Only by violating the guidelines for which items should have icons. None

The same guidelines apply to menu items no matter what type of menu
they're in. For example, the use of icons in Nautilus's "Open With"
submenu should be exactly the same regardless of whether you are opening
that submenu via the context menu or the "File" menu. And icons in
buttons and icons in menu items already are covered by separate options.

[Bug 387957] Re: Improve Save As Dialog Box (focus issues)

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

I disagree with David that the current behavior is good, but I agree
with him that this bug report is not valid as a papercut.

Making Tab from the folder list navigate to the Name field would require
either (a) introducing a Mac-style focus model as default in GTK (i.e.
only text fields and listboxes get focused, not buttons etc), or (b)
rearranging the Save dialog so that the Name field is below the folder
list, as it is in the Windows dialog, or both. Either of these changes
would have complex effects elsewhere that would need to be designed in
detail. I suggest contacting GTK+ developers directly about the issue.

Marcos, it's cool that we have made gufw a little more attractive
without you having to do anything (no more ugly orange and white
cross!), but the change has made it more obvious that you were not
following the Gnome guideline about size and padding of buttons.
 Once you've fixed that, if you
want further design help I suggest contacting a designer somewhere other
than in this bug report.

manzur, no, it was nothing to do with button sizes.

[Bug 407621] Re: (design decision) Icons missing from context menu , dialogue buttons , firefox bookmark favicons, system menu

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

komputes, the gconf key does not apply to entire menus, it applies to
individual items. For example, when on, "Places" > "Connect to Server"
and "Bookmarks" > "Organize Bookmarks" have icons; when off, they don't.

Jean-François, testing this would be difficult but not impossible. Take
a representative sample of computer users (which OSNews + Slashdot +
Digg + Ubuntu Forums readers emphatically would not be!), sit half of
them in front of a default Ubuntu installation, and half in front of an
installation where only the icons-in-menus setting has been changed.
Test their speed at performing particular actions that involve the
relevant menu items (e.g. "print this Web page"), and afterwards ask
them to rate the aesthetics of the overall interface, all *without
mentioning icons to them at all*. Testing how people actually work and
how they feel would be much more accurate than polling how they think
they might work and feel. It is because testing small issues like this
is so difficult that designers sometimes have to make decisions without
testing.

[Bug 429202] Re: Awkward wording in GDM Login Screen Settings

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Thanks for these suggestions.

The first suggestion introduces a new term, the "User Selection List".
What is the user selection list? It's the screen for choosing who will
log in. That definition isn't much longer, so it's cognitively simpler
just to say "the screen for choosing who will log in". Perhaps there is
a simpler way of expressing it, but I don't think "the user selection
list" is it.

The second suggestion confuses a mechanism with a desired result. I
doubt anyone actually wants to "cancel automatic login"; what they
actually want to do is to log in themselves. Cancelling automatic login
is just a side-effect of doing that. Again, maybe there is a simpler way
of expressing it than "Allow _ seconds for anyone else to log in first",
but it should be at least as direct as that, rather than digressing.

[Bug 388904] Re: Nautilus 'Computer' displays redundant labels

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

It looks like a short-term improvement would be to revert that change.
It's not clear from the Gnome bug report why David Zeuthen wanted the
manufacturer name etc shown by default (perhaps someone could ask
him?:-). But probably it could be shown somewhere optional, separate
from the label. For example, in icon view, it could be shown as
secondary text below the label when you zoom in (like sizes are
currently). And in list view, it could be an optional column separate
from the Name column.

[Bug 407621] Re: (design decision) Icons missing from context menu , dialogue buttons , firefox bookmark favicons

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Christoph: As I just explained on IRC, raw customizability of the menu
is not the standard we're using here -- otherwise every menu item in
OpenOffice.org would need an icon merely because its menus are
customizable. The Ubuntu Software Store has moved to the Applications
menu (bug 431882). And I don't see any missing icons in your screenshot
of the Places menu: "Connect to Server", "Search for Files", and "Recent
Documents" are not objects, whereas the other items are.

antistress: Please report a bug in Firefox that the search menu should
have icons, if you haven't already.

Vladimir: No, we are not doing this because Mac OS X does it. Even if we
were, that Mac OS X does something does not *necessarily* make it a bad
idea. The main reason it's hard to find people comparing the sexiness of
interface design details is that software is a young industry (compared
with music or fashion, for example), so interface design criticism is
not yet an established field of literature (and the little that exists
is mostly about Mac software, e.g. John Siracusa and John Gruber). You
are probably correct that "Add/Remove...", with that wording, should not
have had an icon, because it is an action rather than an object; but it
is being replaced in the Applications menu by "Ubuntu Software Store",
which is more obviously an application itself and therefore should have
an icon.

[Bug 426232] Re: From search field, Down key selects first result but doesn't focus it

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Actually, sorry, I was confused. This is still a bug in the Store.

What I'm asking for here is additional behavior, specific to the case
where "the insertion point (caret) is at the trailing end of the search
field". The Store should focus the search results pane (however GTK does
it), and should *also* actively select the first result.

This is not standard behavior for text fields, it should not be standard
behavior for treeviews, and it shouldn't even be standard behavior for
package list views in the Store. (For example, it shouldn't happen if
you tab to the search results pane.) But I think it is appropriate extra
behavior for the specific case of the down arrow key at the end of the
search field, because it makes keyboard navigation for the search
results more consistent with keyboard navigation for an autocomplete
menu in a Web browser.

[Bug 426232] Re: From search field, Down key selects first result but doesn't focus it

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Thanks for that example, Michael. I guess the standard GTK behavior
should be changed: it doesn't make sense to have two different focused
appearances that are functionally identical. (The same thing happens if
you press Enter in either state.)

If themes want to show that a tree view is focused, they should do that
with a focus ring, just like they do for text fields.

[Bug 407621] Re: (design decision) Icons missing from context menu , dialogue buttons , firefox bookmark favicons

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Dave Gilbert: "usability being more important than aesthetics" suggests
an opposition that isn't really there. Aesthetics is part of usability;
for some research and examples of this, see
.

antistress: I don't see how adding an icon could ever effectively
communicate "don't look at this, it's probably not what you want". If
you were trying to de-emphasize a particular item, it would need to be
visually less (e.g. smaller text, greyer text), not more.
