Something has been bugging me about unity ever since the the behaviour
of the window buttons was changed to hide with the global menu.
That thing is the top left corner of the desktop:
With the default setup of launcher always showing and a maximized
window, that top left just looks odd to me.
When the window buttons were visible, the window title and global menu
lined up with the maximized window and everything looked normal.
Since the behaviour was changed it is like that left part of the menu
bar is overhanging the window and no longer looks part of it, if that
makes sense. It just looks terribly ugly to me.
Although it has no direct affect on usablity, I just find it incredibly
distracting and I just cannot take my eyes away from the area.
I have added a second screenshot which shows the launcher icons at their
smallest size and the window buttons visible.
Again, this looks odd in the way the buttons overhang and make things
look odd again.
I'm not sure what the alternatives are but I would be interested to hear
other people's thoughts on this?
I cannot help but feel such a visual glitch (for want of a better
phrase) would never be allowed in other major environments (Windows, OS
X, KDE Gnome 3 etc).
With Ubuntu not being used by many people (well, when comparing it
to Windows), small bugs like this one (not really a bug, but a
visual glitch) are usually left and not dealt with. It is major bugs
that the Ubuntu devs and community want to deal with. It should be
this way: I would rather have small bugs and glitches than big ones.
But IMHO, small visual glitches and bugs are not looked at as they
should be. There is really no way to deal with this though. I am
absolutely positive that if it was possible for Ubuntu devs to look
at these glitches and fix them, they would. I think the problem is
that there aren't enough people working on Ubuntu. This really is
nobody's fault, so I am not blaming anybody. I think if more people
used Ubuntu, there would be more people working on fixing bugs.
Thanks!
In Christ,
Ryan
