--- Comment #8 from Eric <m...@ericvanblokland.nl> --- Sorry for the duplicate, for some reason my search did not turn up with this one. I was probably searching for open issues. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > Sorry, this is the new design goal, as making some buttons mysteriously > remain rectangles for no clear reason confused the heck out of a lot of > people and we go no end of bug reports about it. I would really like you to reconsider this new design goal. As it confused the heck out of me why that button became so large.

If we're talking user expectations, users would expect one of the following, in order of most likely behavior: 1. The same height as Task Manager (icons). This is the behavior users are used to in a variety of desktop environments. 2. Some arbitrary height that looks good. 3. The height of the icon that is used for that widget. (I know, good luck with vectors, but hey, it is user expectation) 4. I don't think there is a 4th expectation for this particular widget. Just kidding, I guess it actually makes a lot of sense for horizontal panels. However, I suspect the widget would become rather small on slim horizontal panels. For me any default behavior chosen is a not really an issue, as long as I can change it. So a toggle would be nice, a toggle and an input where I can specify the desired size (width for horizontal, height for vertical) or scale would be better. > Relatedly, this is the downside of our data-poor and off-by-default > telemetry; we don't know this kind of thing until people complain about it! Never change. The least we as users can do is give some constructive feedback. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
