If we had a scope where the user could place launcher icons wherever they wanted, and the icons would stay in exactly the same place unless manually moved (especially if they can choose how many rows and columns worth of icons to show), this would make it a *lot* easier to find and launch things. And preferably not just apps, but also items from non- app scopes... but just apps would be a good start.
We can currently do this to some extent with the left-side launcher bar, but it has very limited space. On my Android phone, I have 24 launchers on my primary screen alone, plus four other pages which all have almost as many, with each page (and each section of a page) organized into logically-related groups of icons. The left-side launcher only allows like ten without scrolling, and the one on the bottom isn't configurable (and doesn't really do anything, so why is it even there?). So, nine slots. I'm using eighty-one launcher slots on my primary phone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1320920 Title: Apps scope sort order is confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1320920/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
