Link from #14 / ubuntu tweak only works temporarily and not very very well when using multiple screens. Some goes for changing fonts sizes. I posted a workaround (using UXA instead of SNA) http://askubuntu.com/questions/584922/how-do-i-fix-fonts-not-rendering- and-missing-letters -- You receiv

Happens to me too. Minutes after booting. I found a workaround though ( so at least the laptop is usable again) install ubuntu-tweak . And use it to make the font smaller. 0.9 restores some of the characters and 0.8 size restores them all. Been working fine for hours now. -- You received thi

Martin. Thank you for adding this fix :-) Has Debian already decided to use systemd instead of sysv? In the meantime my workaround for Debian is working fine... :-) Best regards, Evert -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

2010-05-12 Thread Marck Robinson
Dmitrijs, your screen shot is clearly a good example of badly tuned tooltips. On my system they do not cover the other indicator icons because I have them on the top panel and they are correctly set to pop-up below the panel. This way they do not block your ability to see any of the other indicat

The reason that many of us don't want to let this issue go is because all of the justifications to remove tooltips don't make up for the loss of functionality that can't be replaced. Hover based tooltips are a powerful model that play a much needed role in a pointer based UI: - they do not take i

Tooltips do not take input focus away from your current work flow, clicking the application icon does. For example, I can leave the tooltip up monitoring information the entire time I write this response. The only time tooltips aren't the best approach is for mobile devices where the mouse is rep

There is a difference here. Removing icons from menus is more of an aesthetic change, removing tooltips removes functionality that users depend on. I'm crossing my fingers hoping it won't be long until the tooltips are restored. -- please include status messages/tooltips https://bugs.launchpad.

As some have mentioned, knowing what an icon in the panel is does not require a tooltip. However, that isn't always true. The icon may sometimes make it clear what the application is, however, there are many cases where that isn't true. 1. I have 6 configurations of eclipse for different develop

We consider tooltips a core feature, they fill a unique role because they are never in your way and only pop-up if you hover, implying you want to see them. Information that is automatically there when you need it and never there when you don't is about as perfect as user interaction can get. The
