[Bug 387431] Re: Network Manager vs Network Settings
The issue that led me to post as a papercut is the two appear to use the same information and perform the same task on the surface. In depth it is confusing which tool should be used for what configuration and which tool will proved a still there after reboot configuration. I think modifying the choice of words in the dialogs will correct the confusability concern. This issue is more apparent for a user coming from a Windows or Mac environment where launching a single tool/interface dialog/wizard does it all. -- Network Manager vs Network Settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387431 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

That is too big to be considered a paper cut, because it would involve a usability evaluation of the entire application and a massive interface redesign. If you can identify a single, specific change that would make Network Settings less confusing, please detail it and perhaps we can address it as a paper cut; otherwise, please mark this bug invalid. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- Network Manager vs Network Settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387431 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.

Re: [Bug 387404] Re: Mouse auto-selects a menu choice on rt click
yes, this 8.10 and I have tried mouse control adjustments. Thanks for the info... I guess it is time to move to 9.x. I will do so tonight and retest the bugs Bill On Tue, Jun 16, 2009 at 4:18 PM, returnofnights nightwolf_...@hotmail.comwrote: This bug is caused but the click speed being too low or ignored! What happens is when you right click an item it acts as though you've help the right button in (try this yourself on a file item in nautilus), holding the right mouse button will select the item your hovering when you release the button. I had this happen on 8.04 and 8.10 - but not 9.04 (so may be fixed?) -- Mouse auto-selects a menu choice on rt click https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387404 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: New Status in “gtk+2.0” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When trying to right click and select from choices, the mouse action will autoselect a menutask and perform the action. Annoying in natulis and text documents. Almost crippling at times in Firefox. When the mouse is placed over a link, object or in a page and the mouse is right clicked, the same action will be repeated time and again until the mouse is selecting at a different point on the desktop. If an object or link is in position a, the same autosection of a task will occur. If the object or link is moved to position b, the mousing activity is typically normal. System is a Dell Mini9, and to date no updates have affected this action. apt-get upgrade is run weekly at a minimum. Other bugs have been corrected with the updates. -- -- -- Bill Ries-Knight Stockton, CA SaveStockton.org Just make it better! Respect the process, Vote.
