[Ayatana] BFB (Dash Home button) does not match reference design

2012-01-22 Thread David Gorski
The current BFB (Dash Home Button) does not match the original reference design. I know this isn't anything major, however it looks much more visually slick/professional and shouldn't be hard to implement. What do you think? A comparison image can be found here: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/9079

trick though is the semantics of when you can get the mouse over it to drag it. (I also don't like the middle on the right - the middle just is much more distracting). Dave -- -Open up your eyes, open up your mind, open up your code --- / Dr. David Alan Gilbert| Running GN

I can't remember where I've put something else!) Having 3x3 switcher also doesn't take up too much panel space (the Gnome switcher is still quite useable at that size, the KDE equivalent less so). Dave -- -Open up your eyes, open up your mind, open up your code ---
