I can't believe the... lack of common sense... of some users. Anyway, in general, they missed that clicking the time opened the calendar, and didn't understand how to close it. I'm actually against having a close button, since then there's two ways to close it and that could be confusing; also closing it by re-clicking the time is more intuitive if they know it actually does that. So what about letting them know it actually does that, by, for example, highlighting the time when the calendar is open? Something like in OS X. If the calendar is open, the time in the panel is highlighted, and closing the calendar brings the time back to its original state. It shows users the relationship between the two, in an intuitive way; they will be able to find out how it works on themselves. Do you think that's an idea?
So I propose this fix for this complete bug: 1) When the calendar is open, highlight the time in the panel 2) Show something like a paperclip or other icon on the calendar, and when clicked, the calendar stays around and doesn't close automatically (or the other way around: when clicked, it always disappears after a while). -- Drop-down calendar does not close unless you click on it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387573 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
