[Bug 682788] Re: Improve Unity menus

2012-05-21 Thread Dag Ågren
I have found that sometimes icons in the sidebar are mysteriously coalesced. For instance, I've had Chrome and gedit merge into a single icon, and clicking it would bring up the windows for both. However, this happens too seldom to be reproducible, and I am not sure it has happened in 12.04 yet, so

I take it that would be version 0.4, then. I am currently working towards a release of 1.0, which will be a lot more useful, and usable. What would be the deadline if I wanted that to be done in time for inclusion in 12.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

I've added some man pages to the source code repository. They're pretty sparse right now, and if anyone wants to help improve them that would be extremely helpful. Also, the main dependencies should be libz, libbz2, ICU, openssl and of course GNUStep. Maybe the GUI parts of GNUStep (AppKit) have a

[Bug 732653] Re: Menus are hidden by default

2011-07-02 Thread Dag Ågren
This issue really is absurd on desktop machines. The menu is hidden for absolutely no reason - the space left behind after it is hidden is not actually used for anything! This does not save any space, it actually wastes it! As for the design document, > Menus are an essentially awkward way of pre

2011-05-19 Thread Dag Ågren
I didn't find out that System Settings was available in the session menu until I read this bug report, and I used it several times before that. Don't expect people to read and remember every entry in a menu. Furthermore, the session menu is pretty clearly the "leave the computer" menu. Most of the

2011-05-19 Thread Dag Ågren
Public bug reported: When the menu bar appears, it is placed at a fixed location on the screen. This causes the application name to be partially overwritten with a fadeout effect, which looks extremely sloppy and unaesthetic. It seems this is done to leave the menu at a constant location to make

2011-05-19 Thread Dag Ågren
Public bug reported: It does not seem sensible to keep the menu bar hidden except when the cursor is over it. This makes it both harder to realize a menu bar exists, and also makes it harder to aim at the right menu entry, as it is invisible. Somewhat relatedly, if a window is maximized and then
