If this can be considered as a valid data, I for myself _strongly_ disliked the change at first, but gave it a try (that's what the development version is for). After few days I get pretty used to it, and now I can't imagine having the buttons on the right (pun, pun) side. The key benefits for me are:
* less mouse movement indeed * better orientation - all control elements AND the title are nicely grouped together * much cleaner look (that's totally the matter of personal taste) Nevertheless, I will keep the old button layout on my mom's laptop in the future, unless she ask me to do otherwise (I'm a good son, You know). -- [Master] Window Control buttons: position/order/alignment https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
