Hi folks, We've had a discussion on gnomecc list about removing the "Interface" tab from the appearance capplet (see discussion¹ in the archive for reasoning).
However, before we do so, we would like to ensure the the defaults are correct. The main reason for the tab being there at all is because people felt the defaults are probably incorrect. The main default we would like to change is the "toolbar style" settings. I have suggested¹ that there is broad support for the "text beside icons" style, however there have been concerns that not all applications implement it properly. It is important to note that in this mode, only the most important toolbar items get text labels. PLEASE TRY THIS OPTION BEFORE YOU COMMENT - A LOT OF PEOPLE DO NOT REALISE THAT ONLY SOME TOOLBAR BUTTONS GET LABELS IN THIS MODE. Therefore, I would like to propose a trial period with this setting set to the new value, to give a chance for maintainers to ensure their applications work correctly. I have (regrettably rather hastily) already made the change to libgnome and I have opened a bug 590143 to discuss any issues.
