I prefer the dash and launcher icons at the top. The reason for this is
that at the moment all of the controls I need on a regular basis (dash,
launcher, window controls, window menu) are in the top-left quarter of
my screen. The result is that my cursor is most often in this quarter
and VERY rarel
I'm pretty sure a lot of Unity is 'mirrored' in locales with right to left
languages. Anyone feel free to correct me though.

Alternatively, I'd support integrating all the functionality of the
Oneiric "Device Menu" into the Dash, and just let the user determine
whether to place the BFB on the right or left (or top or bottom, in a
world without any dock) end of the panel.
When (if) the Dash reaches its full potential
Hi Stefanos,
I know the orientation of icons seem off at first sight but if you
think about it in action, you would wanna see the icons close to your
mouse when you aimed at bottom left to activate the Launcher.
Otherwise it would be too much mouse motion and it would not fully

Hi James,

Hi Eylem,
it would be interesting if you could try a slight variation of the first
mockup: the Ubuntu button at the bottom-left (like it already is) but the
application launchers aligned on top (like they are in the default Unity
layout). Right now, the mockup feels somewhat unbalanced with the la
Hi Eylem,
>From past discussions I've seen on here I have received the impression that
the reasoning for the focus on the top left corner is based on the common

Hi everyone,
First of all, I wanna say that I love Unity and I'd like to send a big
KUDOS to all who have contributed to the project.
That said, I have to say that I find the recent change to move the
Ubuntu button to the launcher to be very much against the core of Unity,
as
