hello. i have been using gnome-shell during the last two month and would like to give some new feedback: i am currently using gnome-shell on debian squeeze ( 2.29.0-3 build Tue, 27 Apr 2010 )
as i said before i really love the gnome-shell, anyway here some recent thoughts: 1) left panel: i think it should be possible to set tranparency for the expandable panel on the left. 2) application launching: i think other people proposed that recently, but i always liked browsing the application categories and it would be great to see this in gnome-shell, too. especially if you have many applications installed its very helpful not to browse them by alphabet but by categories ( e.g. if you do not remember what their name was) 3) i am not sure how i actually add lauch icons of my own scripts/programs which are not in the usual pathes. in metacity, you can create a launcher on the desktop and drag it to a panel, this seems not possible in any way anymore, which is a bit sad. i would really like to add them either to the favourites or directly to the panel. 4) when i'm in the overview mode (hope this is the corretc term) i would still like to use the top panel applets like "loudness". they are still there but inactive. however if music plays while i am browsing applications i don';t see why i shoulnd be able to adjust loudness without zooming back into one of the desktops. 5) one problem i came across with using the "recent documents" is that e.g. PDFs i have launched directly from the browser (into evince) appear there, but clicking on them in "recent documents" just opens evince but apperently the URL has not been saved. so far for now, startx _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
