Hi everybody! I've said many times that the AppLauncher position needs to be
configurable. In it's current implementation it only aligns to the left side
of the screen edge. This is probably because most western languages read
from left to right and it saves a lot of vertical space on widescreen
Hi Eylem,
it would be interesting if you could try a slight variation of the first
mockup: the Ubuntu button at the bottom-left (like it already is) but the
application launchers aligned on top (like they are in the default Unity
layout). Right now, the mockup feels somewhat unbalanced with the

Hi Niklas,
You have some valid points here BUT this problem has already been
solved. In fact, it was solved in the first version of Unity. The
solution is autohide. Launcher autohides by default on Ubunut making
it effectively disappear and give all
Does anyone know about any official decisions made on this issue?

Hi James,
I don't think the orientation of English language is a valid reason to
keep the Ubuntu button on the top left.
I think the focus should be about assigning functional attribute to
each screen corner so the user can aim to a particular corner with a
certain purpose. System related
Hi Stefanos,
I know the orientation of icons seem off at first sight but if you
think about it in action, you would wanna see the icons close to your
mouse when you aimed at bottom left to activate the Launcher.
Otherwise it would be too much mouse motion and it would not fully
serve the purpose
Wouldn't it work anyway since the BUB is now inside the AppLauncher area?
All corners are a great position according to Fitt's Law so there's no need
to move the position of the BUB relative to the rest of the launcher - and
the Dash would ofcourse unflod accordingly.

Well, you're still suggesting moving the Ubuntu button to the bottom
left when the Launcher is at the bottom, right? The problem with that
is that it disturbs the overall consistency of the desktop. I mean,
the Ubuntu button and the Dash are (should be) central to Unity
desktop and moving them
Alternatively, I'd support integrating all the functionality of the
Oneiric Device Menu into the Dash, and just let the user determine
whether to place the BFB on the right or left (or top or bottom, in a
world without any dock) end of the panel.
When (if) the Dash reaches its full potential,
I'm pretty sure a lot of Unity is 'mirrored' in locales with right to left
languages. Anyone feel free to correct me though.

Subject: Re: [Ayatana] A rather radical Unity
My wish is that they implement a button which isn't a part of the
AppLauncher Icon's area but still not taking up the top left corner since
the window buttons are really awkwardly placed when working with a maximized
window in 11.04. But without that corner it loses a lot of efficiency

I upgraded to Oneiric tonight. While there are still very rough edges and lots
of crashes, I really like the way things are going.
I especially like Unity2D. Actually, at present, I prefer using Unity2D. I like
its appearance better than I like Unitys. And I don't know if it's intentional,
but
