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
I was wondering why the icons on unity 2d's launcher look very dull in
comparison with the 3d.
is this a limitation of unity 2d, the use of different backlights or another
bug ?
unity2d is being used in different projects so my guess it should be as nice as
possible.

"Express goals and intention" is what i was thinking. That's how I've been

And any hover action would/should only be triggered if launcher is fully
visible (even when in auto hide mode) and then it takes a second or 2 for the

And since they keep their order, is predictable.
I also dont see how you would "accidentally" trigger things on the left side if

Not sure how mandriva did it, but even if they are using QT/kde it looks like

If it turns blue you would also change the text color for that entry.
I would personally find it better just to have one of those little circles
(like in the messaging menu) with the amount of updates.
Example:

I agree startup applications is not something that you would use frequently and
the only item inside is the "Gnome Login Sound" (which i also believe is not
the correct place for it either, as i was looking how to disable startup sound

I think i agree with this. But should not "force" an application to close, like
