OK, just so you know I'm pretty pissed off how this is being handled. But that's not helping anyone so let's get back to the technical details and see how we can solve this. There is quite a demand for that feature, apparently the most subscribed ayatana related bug and also one of the most commented on. Some at Canonical seem to disagree both with a) the problem and b) the solution for no further explained "design reasons". I get the impression they haven't read my comments on the bug tracker. Grep my name, I'm not going to repeat my arguments here. If anything is unclear I'll happily elaborate. If there are any arguments against my point of view I'm all ears. I post this here and not on the bug tracker because the bug doesn't separate a) and b). You can disagree with a particular solution and therefore close the bug but you can't tell the people who subscribed that the problem "won't be ever fixed". Some alternative solutions to the popular single click on launcher icon method: context menu (like OS X), a hide button in spread view or Windows 7 taskbar like thumbnails with a minimize function. You want me to make a separate bug report for every single solution I can come up with? (I could really think of better ways to report and discuss design issues than a bug tracker.) That's it for now. Looking forward to your replies. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
