I hope this data is useful; At first, the change was very alien to me and I kept going to the top right to access the window controls. I went through a period of cheating by just using F keys before deciding to give them a fair commitment - this is development after all - and not a place to complain and influence the outcome to suit me personally.
After three days of usage (two hours per day), I found that the mistaken click behavior stopped - besides the very rare relapse. Now I get it right all the time and I attribute that to the fact that it 'makes sense' to me. It feels like that's where they belong, and I have less to think about. "Whatever it is you want, it's on the left." I also love the visual look of having the right space opened up. I find I have to scan less often as all controls, toolbars, buttons etc. seem to naturally blossom from the top-left now. It's organic and it works - for me. I have notions of supporting Ubuntu for local charities and maybe schools and I did consider the support consequences. However, I don't think that a new button position will warrant a phone call from the users. They may complain as they get used to it .. but I can't imagine being called with a question like "can you remind me where those buttons are again?" And if you *are* providing support, you should be competent enough to change them back if you feel it absolutely necessary. I think in the end, this experiment will boil down to: "How resistant can people be to change." -- [Master] Window Control buttons: position/order/alignment https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
