Hi, I have made a two news mockups. The first is the overview with a new menu to manage projects. You can to drag and drop a project to the workspace you want. http://nsa15.casimages.com/img/2010/05/03/100503101754810934.png
The second is a fullscreen mockup with a project activated. http://nsa15.casimages.com/img/2010/05/02/100502065741947598.png For each project, you have a widget full of files who belong to the activated project. I add an other widget, a mix between GAJ and Sezen, for a quickly access to files in time. I covered all the desktop because If you work on a project, you don't have to use desktop. But I don't like very much this idea, and the desktop is a little bit dark. So I made a third mockup here, with one desktop-folder for each projects: http://nsa14.casimages.com/img/2010/05/03/100503101939790053.png And the sezen dock can be hide. I have made a lot of mockups, and each time I regret that a project management doesn't already exist. ;) Thanks for the listening Kao 2010/5/1 Kao Chen <[email protected]> > Thanks for explanations. > > I already know GAJ, I think it's a very good time traveler. > GAJ is powerful standalone software, but I think we need a more little > application, with a panel integration in Gnome-Shell.
