To be honest, I like the Alternative_2 best but it's more unorthodox and
may receive more objections :)
I'm hoping that this suggestion would see some serious consideration and
response. Thank you!

I totally agree that the Launcher edge alignment should be user
configurable but with the Ubuntu icon (and Dash) on the top left, I
don't see how it can be possible.
Please see my proposal which makes this very possible:

So, what's going to happen to the window controls? Is this proposing removal
of them? If not, how's the whole thing going to work?

The current design is justified by the motivation to move the window
control buttons to the top left.
Apparently, the usability tests for 11.04 design showed that the
window controls are better on the top left, so they moved the Ubuntu
button out of that location.

I have to say, I _love_ the application button idea on the corner! The

Well, what can I say, I'm extremely surprised that "there is nothing

disagree. I guess I'll leave you with your content for now and be back

I completely agree. Having the window control buttons for the Dash

Hi all,
I'd like to propose some changes to Unity, in particular to the
Launcher and left of the top panel. I understand that UI is frozen for
11.10, and I hope at least that the decision makers will take this

I think we need a theme configuration tool to mix and match themes.
Currently, we only have a theme selector. I'm baffled with the fact that
GNOME dev's have no plans for any kind of theme selection/configuration
tool...

I think this was the best suggestion on this so far. It would add a
missing feature to Unity and bring more unity to Ubuntu desktop.

the dev's make effort to have this functionality (and others,
possibly, but that would be really off-topic to discuss here) work
with Gnome-Shell (and other DE's a user might install) as well? I
think it all comes to how Alt-F2 is implemented and therefore it is

we could have only the links to the main applications but it would be
much easier, and it would be consistent with a Wine user's
expectations (although probably not with Unity). In any case, such a

The only real problem I have with overlay scrollbars is when using

terms should direct to logical items. E.g. "halt","shut", "quit", or
"exit" should bring shutdown, "reboot" should bring restart, "sleep"
should bring suspend,
ss a quick solution is an option to turn-off the online

Completely agree, these are inappropriate in the Dash, extremely
redundant clutter considering what the power cog does. Moreover, for
me the utter *simplicity* of Ctrl+Alt+Del still
stems off when all they tried to is
start an application. This will apply to all other sessions actions that
will be in Dash (logout, restart, etc).

Completely agreed with you there. Asking for that certain
gnome-tweak-tool by default does not make sense. Ubuntu must develop its
own system customization tool and ship it by default.
