** Description changed: Binary package hint: desktop-base Desktop icons need to conform to a proper 48px x 48px (or whatever the preferred dimension is) grid. The shortcuts seem to easily overlap each other, and the text is squished together when they are placed side-by- side. In reference to Web Development or Media Printing, the icons need more padding. At the moment, icons can not be place directly side-by-side without text - overlapping (such as "brett's Home" and "Computer", the "er" in - "Computer" and the "br" in "brett's Home" overlap and make the name - unreadable. + overlapping (such as "michael's Home" and "Computer", the "er" in + "Computer" and the "mi" in "michael's Home" overlap and make the name + unreadable. In the screenshot I attached, I have "brett's Home" and you + can easily imagine what one more character would do to the spacing + between "Computer" and the home icon. Also, placing icons vertically, they don't seem to have the freedom to move 2px up or down, but rather only a already defined 5 or 6px, making it hard to line the icons up. If the icon sizes were all standardized (ie: 36px x 36px), and there was an invisible grid for the icons to snap too, this problem would be erased. -- Icons don't conform to a proper grid. https://launchpad.net/bugs/76473 -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
