There has been a decision on advanced buttons many years ago (I think 2.0 time). Since it has been raised and discussed various times. A few of the reasons: - advanced button will always be clicked, resulting in always performing extra steps (it is a bit more than 'user defined') - increased complexity - increased support+QA (e.g. focus-follow-mouse is partly broken atm, if you show it by default it'll better work!) - more translation work (damned lies counts gschema stuff differently) - goes against 'should work by default' and so on. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
