Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Comments on Geary

Yea it definitely is! Those guys are doing awesome work :D Yorba wants to make sure that Geary runs on Ubuntu and Fedora as well as elementary. So with Geary, we may have to do a lot of ifdef type stuff like we're currently doing with Midori in order to get granite support. But I would love to use

[Elementary-dev-community] Running App Indicators

Hey Guys, I've seen a few mails/reports about the current lack of running app indicators in Luna. I wanted to get a feel for how people who have been using Luna for a while feel about it. Namely, is this something people are complaining about because they expect it and aren't used to it yet, or is

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Comments on Geary

Right, I know A LOT of work we've done recently wasn't included in the latest stable release. But I think we're due for another Granite release pretty soon, right? On Tue, Sep 18, 2012 at 8:55 AM, Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff < ser...@elementaryos.org> wrote: > But now that we have Granite in Debia

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Running App Indicators

I've been using Luna for quite a bit and i would love to have the option to see the indicators..sometimes it's easier and quicker to just reveal the dock than using the window switcher (i personally don't like hotcorners,i really hate it when i accidentally activate them..)..plus,choice is always g

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Running App Indicators

I'd prefer to keep the indicators for now. I'd be glad to personally send them to /dev/null as soon as we have https://blueprints.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+spec/memory-lending, but until that's done I have to keep my eyes open for memory and I/O hogs, even with zramswap.

I end up with 3 or 4 browser windows with the same tabs open because I lose them. Maybe this could be avoided if Plank un-minimized windows on icon click instead of keeping them minimized. On Tue, Sep 18, 2012 at 11:26 AM, Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff < ser...@elementaryos.org> wrote: > I'd prefer

+1. In fact, I'd go one step further and propose that elementary take the lead in adopting the (IMO, much needed) one-application-one-window paradigm.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Running App Indicators

Ill have to think on that more, but on first thought I think it's a good idea to indicate them on the launcher as the presence of a running app changes the behavior of that particular launcher. (Launching a new window versus focusing on an existing one). Spatial concerns can be addressed by using

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Running App Indicators

+1 on running app indicators unless a simple, _mouse only_ expose for app windows is available (e.g. long hover over dock icon exposing running screens). There are useful apps that don't support tabs and, even for those that do, you may still want to run multiple windows with different parameters

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] OEM Installation mode

I'm glad it works in VirtualBox sometimes, but you'd better avoid using it for Linux guests, especially for testing purposes. Its guest additions are known to cause weird issues and crashes all over the system (see http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTk5Mw) and without guest additio
