I just noticed this after upgrading from 12.04 to 16.04. I have to expand every single item in the list to know what it's going to install and it costs me time. Definitely a regression. I'd love a setting, even in dconf-editor, to keep the list fully expanded.
Another annoyance is that there is no way to keep the Details panel open across successive runs of the updater. Again, any kind of setting that would keep it open is welcome. A note about that panel. Given that recent screens reduced the available vertical space, how about placing the Details panel to the right of the list of the updates? That would give more space to read them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1180899 Title: Update list hides important details To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1180899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
