Hmm , odd. I find the bottom-right the most difficult on a laptop, and I'm right-handed. ;) The bottom-left is easy on a laptop , while the same bottom-left is tough on a desktop :/ On a laptop , I'm always having to reach the top-left corner to hit the hot corner , while the top-right is easier... This is more due to how we place the hand on a desktop mouse[hand extends outward] and how we use the touchpad[hand faces inward]. This seems a problem only when flicking to hit the hot corner. Clicking the button activities isnt much of a huge difference. But for the touchpads trying to interact ,the hand covers the screen . There needs to be some configuration allowed for this , to depend on the handedness of the individual. -- Cheers, mac_v _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
