Public bug reported: Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I don't think it should do this. When people open a program, they expect to see a reaction immediately. If it's opening as a 10x10 pixel icon in the corner of their screen, or in another workspace where they can't see it, then they will be confused and become frustrated. Also, what do you want to do when you open a music player? You want to play music, select your song or artist or album, or choose a podcast or browse the store. None of these can be achieved when the window is on another workspace, or with the limited functionality of the music menu in the notification area. Plus, I believe this action is inconsistent with most other programs." https://lists.launchpad.net/ayatana/msg01518.html Mark Shuttleworth wrote: "Yes, I agree, Rhythmbox when launched conventionally should display a window. It might remember its state w.r.t. being maximised, and it's "position" (playlist) from the preious time it was running, but you should get the feeling of having "opened it" if you click on it in the launcher. Please do file a bug and copy this exchange into it." https://lists.launchpad.net/ayatana/msg01519.html ** Affects: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Rhythmbox should open a window when started conventionally https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570565 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
