I fully agree with everything in the OP. In terms of aesthetics especially this is an absolute mess and I can't imagine how any designer would possibly give this a go.
Suggested fix: A better idea would be to attempt a proper redesign of the 11.04 style button to stand out from it's background like the window controls do. See attached .png file for a rough reference. ** Attachment added: "Conceptual idea for a better solution of the dash buttons visibility/recognizability problem." https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/825146/+attachment/2341371/+files/dashbutton_concept.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/825146 Title: [Oneiric] The BFB needs to be restored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/825146/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
