Re: [Ayatana] Ubuntu Font as default for web site

2011-02-10 Thread Mark Curtis
The only way a font would 'break' a website with the Ubuntu font would be if it "broke" under the libertarian fonts as well.Arial or Helvetica would be the "de facto standard" for sans. This is talking about making it the Ubuntu font when it currently isn't either Arial nor Helvetica now anyway

Well I think that this it's unnecessary, it's more quickly and simple open a file with right click and select "Open with" instate drug and drop the file into the launcher and select the app we want. El jue, 10-02-2011 a las 11:18 -0500, Jason Smith escribió: > On Thu, 2011-02-10 at 18:10 +0200, R

Showing only the default app is not the best thing I think, because opening the file with the default application can be done by simply double-clicking the file. It would be nice to use this possibility to show all the apps that can open the file (based on the mime type), and the file would be open

I think showing the default app is the ideal. We could always have it show in a standard place. There would need to be some design on this one but it should be possible. On Thu, 2011-02-10 at 15:53 +, Neil Jagdish Patel wrote: > On Thu, 2011-02-10 at 23:26 +0800, Sam Spilsbury wrote: > > Hi th

Hey Sam, If I understand you right you want to allow applications to be opened on the file by dragging the file to it then im all for it. It doesnt sound like a whole lot of work to get it working either. --fagan On Thu, 2011-02-10 at 23:26 +0800, Sam Spilsbury wrote: > Hi there, > > I was
