Why would it be better to do move it out of sight into the dash? exactly. i don't think it would be wise to remove it from the edge of the screen. One could keep it in the top right, make it a large button and give it a more prominent coloring when the dash is open, but that would require a proper visual design of the whole indicator wing at the top right. I'm positive that will happen in the near future, my guts are telling me so.. look at this for example: http://www.gabsoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Capture-121.png what we have now is much better already! now it needs to be stepped up into a proper design, away from the rusty plain old menu stuff that has been around from ever since back in the day.. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Pressing the power button on your computer opens a dialog that lets you shut down. There's no need for a keyboard shortcut for a separate dialog for the same thing. I agree with you on that, but what if the Tour is a way out of range ? say I have to stand up in order to push the power button... , on a Laptop, not having a shortcut is okay, but with a tour I think we need it. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
