>From what I can tell the current solution to this bug is that the toolbar is hidden and when the mouse enters the region of where the toolbar exists a hint is displayed and the user will drag out the toolbar.
If this is the recommended approach I think we are making a mistake. I think this doesn't make sense for two reasons: 1. Historically desktop applications show toolbars by default; it is unintuitive for a user to have to pull out a toolbar to make use of it. I understand the rationale here on the phone as we use the edges, but we don't use the edge of the desktop screen on the desktop as we are using windows. 2. Having to pull out the toolbar everytime you need to use it is going to get rather frustrating rather quickly. It also requires a special level of mouse dexterity as the 1GU area is quite narrow to pull out the toolbar. Can the design team provide some rationale about why we don't simply display the toolbar by default? ** Tags added: sdk-app-desktop-integration -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1182734 Title: Slide out toolbar should be displayed by default on the desktop (swiping is difficult) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1182734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
