Hi, Not to rehash the same old boring topic, but to just give a user feedback from using the 2 new positions of the window controls.
I'v been patiently trying to use the new positioning and trying to see if it is better or doesnt really matter. With the "old"[earlier alpha order] order of < max,min,close: > on the left side, I used to occasionally hit the maximize button instead of hitting the "File" menu in the menubar. But this wasnt a big deal as i could unmaximize the window and no harm was done and nothing was lost. But with the final order < close,min,max: > I find it easier to accidentally *close* the windows and it is rather frustrating when I have to re-open the nautilus window and get back to the location / re-open firefox & re-load all the pages. Luckily most apps ask for confirmation before closing unsaved documents, but still a bit frustrating when being prompted when all i wanted to do was open the "File" menu. >From using the new positions, probably < max,min,close: > was much better. The close on the left-most probably works better in OSX ,since they have a global menu and the menubar isnt near the window controls. However, we have a very thin menubar [20-25px?] and it is easier to accidentally hit the window controls instead of the menu options. Since I end-up accidentally closing the windows on several occasions , I had sighed and just considered this a PEBKAC and changed the order in my system to < max,min: close > [close on the right-side.] What prompted me to send the feedback is, I noticed this > https://twitter.com/popey/statuses/12207605002 and thought there are probably many more users going "D'Oh!", in front of their computer screens which the UX isnt being aware of. -- Cheers, Vish _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
