Desired Solution: The logical incremental direction is left to right (horizontally) and bottom to top (vertically). Vertically (e.g.: with scrollbars), to move the thumb towards the bottom, we move the finger (on top of the mouse wheel) towards us. Hence the same movement, when we have horizontal slider, should move the thumb from right to left. On my current Precise build the Launcher tile in the Appearance panel and the slider in the Sound indicator work fine.

** Changed in: ayatana-design Status: New = Fix Released ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Released ** Changed in: unity Status: Incomplete = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. Matching subscriptions: dp-unity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923228 Title: Left-clicking a launcher icon does at least 8 different things Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Released Status in Unity: Fix Released Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I've been using Unity (Natty and now Oneiric) for a while now and really like it, but have found window management via the launcher to be quite problematic, namely because when there are multiple instances of a program open, a slew of things can happen. I'd like first to lay out how the currently system works and then lay out some of the problems it causes, pointing out the inconsistencies within that system along the way. Finally, I'd like to propose a simpler system for what left-clicking on a program icon on the launcher does. Apologies if this has been discussed before (or if this is the wrong place for this report), but I haven't found a conversation/bug that directly addresses the complexity and multiple inconsistencies of the current system as I hope to do. If you left-click a program icon in the launcher the following things will happen: Case #1 - There is no instance of a program open. Pressing the icon opens an instance of that program. Case #2 - If there is one instance of a program running, but the focus is on another program, pressing the icon will bring it forward - whether it is minimized or not. Case #3 - If there is one instance of a program running and it has focus, clicking the launcher icon does nothing at all. Case #4 - If there are multiple instances of a program running and the focus is already on one instance, then all instances are shown in scale mode and the user can pick one which becomes the focus. The ones left unchosen are not brought forward - it doesn't matter if they are minimized or not, they stay where they are. Case #5 - If there are multiple instances of a program running, the focus is not on any of them, and they are unminimized, then all instances are brought forward above all other windows, the last used one to the top. Worthy of note is what happens if you go a step further: if the one just brought into focus is minimized or closed the others return to their previous positions - either behind other programs' windows if opened, or they disappear if they were originally minimized. This is perhaps the system's most baffling behavior. You can actually do some confusing things here. (E.g. Use the top window just opened, then click on one right below it, then minimize them both. The other instances remaining that were summoned upon clicking the launcher icon and are currently on top will actually all go back to their previous state from before you initially clicked the launcher icon - even if it was hours ago!) Case #6 - If there are multiple instances of a program running, the focus is not on any of them, and some are minimized, then the unminimized ones will be brought forward - EVEN IF the last one used was a minimized one. The same weird behavior of windows changing positions later, as seen in case #5, also applies here. Case #7 - If there are multiple instances of a program running and all instances are minimized, they are *all* brought forward - sort of. They are all opened and displayed, but if there are any other program windows open, only a single one of them (the last one minimized) will be in front of those other programs' windows. Unlike in cases #5 and #6, if that one window is minimized/closed, the others stay sitting there, and do not return to their pre-launcher-icon-click position. N.B. The above cases deal only with using a single workspace! There are actually several more possible cases if you have applications spread across more than one, but on the whole they stay within the same paradigm. If you have multiple instances on multiple workspaces, clicking on the icon generally deals only with instances on that single workspace. However, when you click in a way that invokes the scale view you will see all the windows from all workspaces... This in and of itself might be inconsistent, but for now let's leave how workspaces work out of it. I will, however, include one more case, because it directly contradicts what happens in #7: Case #8: If there are multiple instances of a program running and all instances are minimized, but you click the icon from a workspace without any of the programs running, scale is not invoked. Rather, the view is first shifted to the workspace in which the last instance was

The use of such specialised language significantly influenced how users perceived the brand and the intended audience for Ubuntu.

Such as disabling it, or only enabling it for fully maximized windows. Here are two user stories with three scenarios: Pete mostly uses his netbook and really likes the way the global menu is integrated and saves him the much needed vertical space, but when he is working at his desktop, he finds himself constantly moving his mouse to the top of his screen to access the application's menu. Pete wishes there was a setting that would allow him to turn off the global menu for non-maximized applications that would still integrate the menu for applications that are fully maximized. John on the other hand, is a traditionalist. He most commonly works with multiple terminals and finds that the global menu just gets in his way. He also dislikes how the menu becomes hidden by default. Currently, the first thing he does after a fresh install, is remove the 'indicator-appmenu' package in order to completely remove the global menu from his install. John wishes there was a way to simply disable the global menu without having to remove a system package that could potentially cause a dependency issue later down the road.

The File menu, and the rest of Nautilus's menus, are hidden by default. - Unless you mouse over it, the menu bar is blank. - When you mouse over it, the menus appear. 2. The Bookmarks menu, and the rest of Firefox's menus, are hidden by default. - Unless you mouse over it, the menu bar contains only the text Firefox Web Browser, which isn't useful at all (especially, but not only, since the real name of the application -- Mozilla Firefox -- is already present in the window title bar). - When you mouse over it, the menus appear, partly but not completely replacing the previous text: Firefox W File Edit View…. What should happen: Menus should be visible by default, so that you can know that they exist without scrubbing the screen, and so that you can see where a menu is each time you aim for it. The current behavior has led some people (including, this week, one of my design colleagues) to conclude that Ubuntu applications don't have menus when they do. For example http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/opensource/gnome-shell-vs-ubuntu- unity-which-desktop-wins/2291: One of the most handy menu entries in GNOME (for me at least) is the Connect to Server entry in the Places menu. This allows the user to connect to nearly any type of server quickly and easily. The user can even connect to a Windows Share from here. In Unity - you won’t find that. In fact, you will be hard pressed to find any means to connect to a server in Ubuntu Unity. In bug 720424, Jono Bacon reported that when we did some developer tools usability testing last week and on some other occasions when I have had someone use Unity, I have noticed that some folks don't realize there is a menu there as it is not visible. This was confirmed by usability testing of Ubuntu 11.04, where 2 out of the 10 people who needed to use a menu item could not find the menus at all -- and of the 8 who did find them, 7 did so only when the window was maximized. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- desktop/2011-April/002970.html (Usability testing results of Ubuntu 11.10 have never been published, but this part of the design did not change.) Do not confuse this bug with bug 735233 (about adding an option for visibility) or bug 682788 (about reaching the menu on large screens). Adding any options would not fix this bug, which is about the default visibility.

Because the menu is hidden and only appears when the user hovers over the panel with the mouse, he can only find the menu, if he already knows that it is located there, which is an obvious contradiction. However, a user has almost no reason to try and hover the panel in his search for the menu, because it is not visually connected to the application at all. New users, who don't follow closely the development of Ubuntu, as well as users migrating from Windows will have a hard time finding the application menu. I would consider this a major usability regression. I know, that one might argue, that this is only valid the first time the user uses Ubuntu, but please note that there are a lot of users, who use the computer very seldomly or use Windows most of the time. (Perhaps it is necessary to mention, that I myself am a Linux-only user for over 10 years now) I don't really see a reason, why the menu shouldn't be visible all the time, regarding the vast amount of horizontal space in the panel, which is now just empty. Please think of someone near you, who doesn't use computers a lot, your parents or grand parents perhaps, and ask yourself honestly if they would get along easily with the current design.

** Changed in: unity Status: Incomplete = Won't Fix ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. Matching subscriptions: dp-unity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/960048 Title: automatically adding newly installed applications makes the launcher unusable Status in Ayatana Design: New Status in Unity: Won't Fix Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: This got spawned from bug 955147. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter/LaunchingApplications decided to add newly installed applications to the launcher by default. This new concept essentially admits defeat that new users do not know about the dash. This started last cycle with moving the control-center icon into the launcher (thereby making it overflow on netbook screens), which already spawned a large discussion. Now this proposes to throw all limits over board and add tons of new icons to the launcher; NB that we make it very easy to install lots of new apps, and we go through great lengths to make it possible to create, find, and install third-party apps even post-release. Now, this approach works around a temporary 5 minute question (where does that app go?), not by giving a 5-minute answer (quick tutorial or hint application which opens up the first couple of times), but by essentially redefining what the launcher is: a place where all applications go. This has several problems: * Our launcher just isn't built for that -- it's efficient and useful for up to 10 to 20 icons, depending on your screen size. But after that it folds, and exponentially gets harder to use. It doesn't have text to describe the applications, does not have a stable order, and is just one-dimensional. * It does not have most of the applications that are installed by default -- how do people find that? * It teachs the wrong thing -- that the launcher is the place for all apps. It drives people further away from the dash, thereby aggravating the learning problem instead of solving it. * It optimizes a thing which represents 0.5% of the workload [1] at the expense of making the other 99.5% much worse. The spec itself points out that this relies on heavy users removing unwanted launchers. Given how the launcher works, anyone who installs more than ~ 10 apps is a heavy user, i. e. quite a large part of users. The flaw in that spec is the conclusion it draws from the fact that users are not able to figure out how the dash works: You rely on users being able to remove apps again, but then they would again need to use the dash to start these applications, a capability you just denied them. So in summary, this turns the launcher into something like the app launcher that e. g. Android has -- place for all application. But as it's not built for this and there are no improvements for at least mitigating the effects of this change. Making the launcher useful to hold an arbitrary number of apps requires it to become two-dimensional, sorted, searchable, and touch friendly. We already have that -- the dash. So if we want to go that direction, could we just not use the dash as we have it, and instead change how to invoke it? [1] Assuming a very pessimistic scenario: using Ubuntu for two hours a day for a year, and 50% not finding out how the dash works in 5 minutes.

Because the menu is hidden and only appears when the user hovers over the panel with the mouse, he can only find the menu, if he already knows that it is located there, which is an obvious contradiction. However, a user has almost no reason to try and hover the panel in his search for the menu, because it is not visually connected to the application at all. New users, who don't follow closely the development of Ubuntu, as well as users migrating from Windows will have a hard time finding the application menu. I would consider this a major usability regression. I know, that one might argue, that this is only valid the first time the user uses Ubuntu, but please note that there are a lot of users, who use the computer very seldomly or use Windows most of the time. (Perhaps it is necessary to mention, that I myself am a Linux-only user for over 10 years now) I don't really see a reason, why the menu shouldn't be visible all the time, regarding the vast amount of horizontal space in the panel, which is now just empty. Please think of someone near you, who doesn't use computers a lot, your parents or grand parents perhaps, and ask yourself honestly if they would get along easily with the current design.

Pete wishes there was a setting that would allow him to turn off the global menu for non-maximized applications that would still integrate the menu for applications that are fully maximized. John on the other hand, is a traditionalist. He most commonly works with multiple terminals and finds that the global menu just gets in his way. He also dislikes how the menu becomes hidden by default. Currently, the first thing he does after a fresh install, is remove the 'indicator-appmenu' package in order to completely remove the global menu from his install.

What should happen: Menus should be visible by default, so that you can know that they exist without scrubbing the screen, and so that you can see where a menu is each time you aim for it. The current behavior has led some people (including, this week, one of my design colleagues) to conclude that Ubuntu applications don't have menus when they do. For example http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/opensource/gnome-shell-vs-ubuntu- unity-which-desktop-wins/2291: One of the most handy menu entries in GNOME (for me at least) is the Connect to Server entry in the Places menu. This allows the user to connect to nearly any type of server quickly and easily. The user can even connect to a Windows Share from here. In Unity - you won’t find that. In fact, you will be hard pressed to find any means to connect to a server in Ubuntu Unity. In bug 720424, Jono Bacon reported that when we did some developer tools usability testing last week and on some other occasions when I have had someone use Unity, I have noticed that some folks don't realize there is a menu there as it is not visible. This was confirmed by usability testing of Ubuntu 11.04, where 2 out of the 10 people who needed to use a menu item could not find the menus at all -- and of the 8 who did find them, 7 did so only when the window was maximized. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- desktop/2011-April/002970.html (Usability testing results of Ubuntu 11.10 have never been published, but this part of the design did not change.) Do not confuse this bug with bug 735233 (about adding an option for visibility) or bug 682788 (about reaching the menu on large screens). Adding any options would not fix this bug, which is about the default visibility.

Because the menu is hidden and only appears when the user hovers over the panel with the mouse, he can only find the menu, if he already knows that it is located there, which is an obvious contradiction. However, a user has almost no reason to try and hover the panel in his search for the menu, because it is not visually connected to the application at all. New users, who don't follow closely the development of Ubuntu, as well as users migrating from Windows will have a hard time finding the application menu. I would consider this a major usability regression. I know, that one might argue, that this is only valid the first time the user uses Ubuntu, but please note that there are a lot of users, who use the computer very seldomly or use Windows most of the time. (Perhaps it is necessary to mention, that I myself am a Linux-only user for over 10 years now) I don't really see a reason, why the menu shouldn't be visible all the time, regarding the vast amount of horizontal space in the panel, which is now just empty. Please think of someone near you, who doesn't use computers a lot, your parents or grand parents perhaps, and ask yourself honestly if they would get along easily with the current design.

Steps to reproduce: 1. Start Firefox 2. Press ALT to open the HUD: the HUD search box opens with the FF icon next to it 3. Type pref: the icon changes to different app indicators (what app indicator is shown varies), in particular the keyboard and network ones and does not show any FF menu options Expected behaviour The HUD should favour menu options from the application that currently has the focus and only show app indicator menu options as secondary items. In the example above, the Firefox Edit Preferences menu item would have been the obvious one to show considering FF had the focus. It looks like the HUD in its current state is only able to show search results from the focused application or one of the app indicators but not both at the same time. The result is that it jumps between focused app and app indicators making it very unpredictable. A more stable behaviour would be to show search results from both the focused application and all app indicators with an order that favours the focused application. -- Note from design: This is an important bug, the display of indicator and desktop options needs to be very significantly retarded.

However, because of the change made in bug 801784, the window title changes to the name of the currently open panel. This is ugly in three ways: 1. It means the title of the current panel is displayed twice, millimeters apart -- first in the window title, and then in the button just below it. 2. It causes the launcher to flash distractingly as you navigate. (Should the Firefox launcher tile show the icon of the page you're visiting, instead of the Firefox logo? No, because that would be annoying. Same thing here.) 3. Least importantly, clicking the All Settings button illogically changes things that are both above and below it. (Web browsers also have this problem, but they have nowhere else to compactly show the title. We do.) Ways this bug could be fixed: a. Make the window title always System Settings, and revert the launcher change. This would fix (1) (2) and (3). b. Make the window title always System Settings, leaving the launcher as it is. This would fix (1) and (3), but not (2), and would introduce a new minor problem: the launcher and the window wouldn't match. c. Use Back and Forward buttons instead of the breadcrumbs, and revert the launcher change. This would fix (1) (2) and (3).

It's a simple colored layer placed above stuff, with some nice blur to makes things more readable but it carries all the issues of washing out the resultant color of the dash, making it less crisp and vibrant. A nice trick is to play with the underlying background windows (the damage area/pixmap taken from Compiz), blend them with colors, and place the resultant below the dash. The steps are these: 1) Take the underlying pixmap 2) Blend this pixmap with a tweaked average color using OVERLAY operator 3) Blur the pixmap (as we currently do) 4) Put this new obtained pixmap below the dash 5) At this point, the dash could be just a solid dark layer even with a lower opacity We might tweak the steps further, but the essential bits will remain the same because what will make the big difference is the blending described in step 2, that we are not doing now. ~~~ ORIGINAL BUG (FIXED Cimi): The background of the BFB, Workspace Switcher, Lens, and Trash launcher icons tiles need to use a higher saturation of the average background colour of the wallpaper. Currently the colour is not as prominent as shown in the design, compare the attached image unity_desktop_24_06_11_02.png to the current implementation (when using the default wallpaper).

I propose the following solution: Instead of showing the spread mode, show all the open windows of the same application as window previews near the application icon in the panel. (This only needs to work when two or more windows of an application are open) Imagine two or more windows previews horizontally of vertically aligned at the right side of the application icon.

This change is because a longer spread delay is only required for the initial item to allow the user time to scan the items in alt-tab without being disrupted. The spread delay on all other item can be shorter, which should give a more responsive feel. -- Note from User Testing: In user testing, participants did not find the spread because they moved between applications too quickly.

The same happens to the BFB even when the dash is not open.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 922979] Re: Keyboard Shortcuts overview isn't displayed on 1024x600 resolution or lower
Marking invalid as the overlay is not interactive and there are currently no plans to design a smaller version just for netbook screens. However patches can be submitted to the design team (which would need design signoff before it could land). ** Changed in: unity Status: Triaged = Invalid ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Well this is quite simple, I don't have the new overlay picture in which unity shortcuts should be displayed. I'm under an updated ubuntu 12.04 Precise. I think it should because of my screen resolution : 1024*600 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/922979/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Desktop-packages] [Bug 930148] Re: Dodge windows is down but what about making the launcher autohide only on maximised apps ?

Matching subscriptions: dp-unity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930148 Title: Dodge windows is down but what about making the launcher autohide only on maximised apps ? Status in Ayatana Design: New Status in Unity: Opinion Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: I was using dodge windows in unity mainly because it make the launcher go out of the way on maximized apps (like Kdenlive who is benefiting a lot from unity's capability of making the most space usable). But I was never hiding the launcher when I use windowed apps (like firefox on the left and openoffice on the righ part of the screen) because it helped me a lot switching with something else rapidly (like thunderbird, pidgin, etc) What I think to be a good third behavior of the launcher is to hide itself when one app or more are fullscreen and if they are not, being always there. There is some corner cases like if one app is full screen and the focused app is not. But I think this will not bring some crazy bugs like dodging windows did in the past.
