ok thanks, I'll do so. not sure what exactly it is, but the colored bakgrounds (or backlights) look different. See the following pics: 3d: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vi3fMYU1SsE/T09a-4NQcUI/IGM/U-2d5PhdO8Q/s1600/ubuntu-12.04-precise-pangolin.png 2d: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AqkdKzVB44c

Re: [Unity-design] exploring matching launcher, panel and window borders for unity 6.0+ ?

I definitely think the panel should should match the launcher's chameleonic design. Window borders, however, should continue using the Ambiance theme to create a distinction between the desktop shell (Panel, Dash, Launcher, Alt-tab switcher) and content/applications. -Dave -- Mailing list: https:

[Unity-design] exploring matching launcher, panel and window borders for unity 6.0+ ?

Unity is constantly evolving in the looks department. Components start to match and integrate better with each other in every new cycle: - launcher and its elements now matches the chameleonic dash. - notify-osd now matches too. example: http://people.canonical.com/~mmueller/notify-osd-avger

Re: [Unity-design] Applications Dash should display all apps (or be configurable)

How its designed is that the dash is supposed to persist its settings across sessions so when you reboot/logout the things that were expanded should stay expanded. that's not happening right now due to a bug I believe. (I might be a little fuzzy on the memory about that though) On Thu, Mar 1, 201

Is there a good reason to require the user to have to click "See more results" when opening the Applications Dash? Especially when users use dconf to disable the display of "recent" and/or "available" apps, why not display all apps by default? I was taking a look at the Windows 8 Consumer Prev
