Are you actually likely to use any given capplet enough times that you'd be able to remember where it was between uses? From what I remember of OS X, I always had to look around a bit to find the capplet I was looking for. Also, I don't remember if we're looking at including the SLED application browser as well, but it works exactly the same way as the control center does wrt searching, and doing highlighting rather than filtering wouldn't work well at all there (since there are several pages of apps). -- Dan _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
