Was there any mockup of having those two buttons transfered into hyperlinks, one in a row, just like the above app links? A divider, already used between the Create and folders section, could still be used at the bottom. But that is just my opinion, of course. I must also support the notion that the folder icons in this icon set seem bigger than the module icons. As far as readability is concerned, these app icons are really not readable well (unlike the ones appearing by default in LO50b1), the quite small and thin-lined white design inside them is hardly readable so users will not "read" from the icon what app they want, which actually makes the icons somewhat redundant in this scenario. It would be the same if not better if only colored dots or boxes or already used (semi-transparent) triangles (each of the current icon/app color) would be in front of the app links text (in fact that might even be a graphically clearer solution, there will be enough un-unified graphics shown in the document preview pane, so excess design in the left pane just makes it all too ). The Calc icon especially is a bit misguiding, I thought at first that a calculator is displayed (but it should represent a table, spreadsheet). Also the "Recent files" text should probably be rendered in white, not grey (to be on par with file names etc.), if needed at all - currently I do not see this text in LO44 or LO50b1 and I do not see why it would be needed - if this pane also contained the Open file dialog upon clicking the "Open File" link, that would be reasonable. But the content of this pane does not change clicking any of the buttons on the left, so titles here are not explicitly needed. It just takes additional space. If already needed, this title should remain in space and only the thumbnails pane should be scrollable - but that would require fixing it into another-colored pane etc. And another thing - why is the Extensions button there at all? Why would someone be looking or trying to install an extension even before one single module is started? I never used it in this context and I do use several extensions, also regularly updating them. But it is just not something you open with LO, so an explanation why this link to a website is here would be in place; of course if clicking it would open an array of suggested extensions in the thumbnail preview pane that would make some sense, but this now is like a work in progress that just got forgotten in the middle. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
