Yes, it's definitely the HIG that is the problem. I would point out that none of those apps follow the HIG anyway. According to the guidelines, if there are more than 6 tabs, you should display a list control instead. http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/controls- notebooks.html.en
The real problem lies in the fact that that that guideline does not apply in this type of situation. That guideline is for pages of options, not for a tabbed document interface (as an implementation of multiple document interface). There is no interface guideline for multiple document interface, much less mdi via tabs. -- Ctrl+Tab to change tab in Nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/388508 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
