Yep - definitely, and I'm too hoping that there will be some other LP-branding of some sort more visible up the top - but that's not my decision :) > >> 2.

But on the previous level you are viewing the root context (the Evolution product)? I think it would be difficult to have a single breadcrumb (re)stating "Evolution" - as it wouldn't be obvious that it was a breadcrumb. Sure, having LP as the first bread-crumb could fix that too...

So I think if I was looking just at your page on its own, I'd agree that the first one was better - although even then it's not obvious *what* it is that you're currently browsing - it's only the breadcrumb that indicates it there. But I assume (I'm no authority on the matter) that the idea is the context title will consistently tell you on any LP page what it is that you're looking at. So people will always know where they are by looking at the (usually-automatic) context-title + breadcrumbs (with one exception being when the context is the root context - like a product in this case). Hopefully Curtis or Martin can let us know when they've time. > > Cheers, > Danilo > > -- Michael _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
