Quoting 2.1.2 from http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/desktop-application-menu.html.en: > Provide a tooltip for each Application menu item you add, following these > guidelines: > * Phrase the tooltip as an imperative verb, for example "design", "write" > or "check". > * Describe the most important tasks users can accomplish with your > application. > * While tooltips should not be verbose, they should be longer and more > descriptive than the item's name. > Examples: > Character Map Insert special characters into documents > Memprof Check your applications for memory leaks > Same Gnome Arrange long chains of similarly-colored balls to eliminate them > Gnome Batalla Naval Client Find and sink enemy ships in this networked > version of Battleship -- Poor descriptions for some applications in Startup Programs window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146918 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
