[Bug 366065] Re: Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour
Here are instructions how to download source, edit it and compile it with a bigger number of Places entries before subfolder: http://www .ubuntu-inside.me/2009/03/howto-display-more-than-5-bookmarks-at.html There are also Brainstorms about this: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/21133 (primary; 500 voters) http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/14381/ (old; 44 voters) http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/22481/ (includes this, but not limited to; 262 voters) I find myself constantly navigating to favorite places through the Places menu, and it's annoying to use the sub menu all the time. -- Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366065 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 366065] Re: Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour
Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project. - Closing papercut task , we already increased the limit to 8 bookmarks. Making it configurable is a feature request and not a papercut For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut. Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as Invalid only in the papercuts project. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366065 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sory, just looking into gnome-panel-2.28.0/debian/patches/71_change_bookmark_submenu_limit_value.patch Default value is 8 for Ubuntu 'karmic' at least.

Re: [Bug 366065] Re: Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour
The previous duplicate asks to make the number of items configurable, and this bug aims to decide on a number different than 5.

[Bug 366065] Re: Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour
It is not clear why placing places in a submenu once more than five places have been added improves usability of the Places menu. If there is a more usable alternative, it should be trivial to implement. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 262520 Make MAX_ITEMS_OR_SUBMENU a gconf key ** Also affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New = Confirmed -- Places menu only allows 5 items before changing its behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366065 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
