In Windows and KDE, there are rich tooltips about a file, and when you
selected a file, more detailed information is shown in a sidebar in Windows.
Maybe we can improve nautilus with a tooltip and a enhanced information
sidebar?
We can even beat windows by providing a cool multimedia file previe

Video and sound preview is difficult. I noticed bug 1
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147642 is discussing how to patch
nautilus with tooltips. One of the patches provided an experimental image
preview, a little like what you mockuped. More tests, suggestions and
interests is welcomed.

Except all the points against tooltips, there are value of tooltips, isn't
it? Or there won't be a bug report requesting it from four years ago, will
it?

very fast way of doing that.
And I think there might be more scenes that a user want a tooltip, and he
indeed need a tooltip.

The original Gnome start menu have three menu items, and I always found
myself puzzled of thinking which menu to click when I want to do something.
I thought it not so convenient as windows start menu.
Here I have implemented a new start menu by modifying gnome-panel source. It
uses gtk-image-menu

in the mailing list.

In fact, the real reason why I implemented this start menu is to use a
widget of GtkWindow to make a start menu more powerful, and I want
to demonstrate that many things could be done using a GtkWindow to be a
start menu. I wish that a well structured "menu" could provide more
functionality. Suse
menu than the current gnome menus.
The Start Menu of windows could be a example to learn.

1. To be blank, I took it for granted at the first sight that the reason why
gnome made three menu items on the panel was that it was not possible to
implement a complicated start menu like windows using current GTK/Gnome
technology. That is one of the reasons that drive me up to design this Start
By the way , I want to find a free ftp site to upload my RPMS of the
modified gnome-panel with my start menu, for a preview purpose. They are
about 4M each. Do you have any good ideas where I should put them?

OpenSUSE does have a start button different from gnome, but it has an
interrupted user experience, as the "All Applications" can only be found in
a seperated windows of application browser, not a submenu in the start menu.
While the "recently used applications" is a key feature of Suse start menu.
it's so good, I will always going on to be a
faithful supporter of GNOME.

I think the productivity is related to the Average time of Average users to
accomplish Average tasks.
In the desktop, the time is measured by mouse clicks, mouse path, and key
strikes. A desktop that could use least mouse clicks, shortest mouse paths
and fastest key strikes to accomplish average t
I have uploaded a preview rpm version of the Start Menu for Fedora Core 9.
You don't have to recompile the source to test it, just force install the
