[Bug 1723835] Re: Dock - Clicking icon doesn't minimize
Dash to Dock v63 (released on Apr 02 2018) added the new click action “minimize-or-previews”. IMHO, this is by far the most user-friendly click action of all supported ones. Unfortunately, this didn't become the default in Ubuntu 18.10. Currently, the file /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-dock.gschema.override contains the setting click-action='previews' (The click action 'previews' was introduced in Dash to Dock v60.) I propose to replace the above line with click-action='minimize-or-previews' I am convinced that this change would satisfy the great majority of Ubuntu users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723835 Title: Dock - Clicking icon doesn't minimize To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1723835/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1713488] [NEW] Change click-action from "cycle-windows" to "previews"
Public bug reported: Version 60 of Dash to Dock added "previews" to the supported click- action values. IMHO, this new value is far more user-friendly than all the others, for the following reasons: 1. If an application has at least 2 open windows then a single left- click enables the user to choose the window to be brought on top. 2. For users with Windows background this is much more intuitive than the "cycle-windows" behaviour, which doesn't offer any choice. 3. The "previews" mode behaves just like Alt-Tab: The user can see previews of all open windows of the application if there are more than one, and thus he can choose the desired window. Change request: Set click-action to "previews" rather than "cycle- windows".

[Bug 1606369] Re: Compiz ‘Thumbnail Window Previews’ artefacts (further fix +)
After some more testing I came to the conclusion that proportionally balanced shadows (as proposed by David Black) will result in improved appearance when using a light theme (and will be OK for dark themes, too). Also, with that fix in effect, it is sufficient to change the value of org.compiz.profiles.mate.plugins.thumbnail.border from 12 to 15 (instead of 19) in order to completely eliminate the reported artefact. Consequently: Alternative solution revisited: Apply the fix proposed by David Black AND change the value of org.compiz.profiles.mate.plugins.thumbnail.border from 12 to 15. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606369 Title: Compiz ‘Thumbnail Window Previews’ artefacts (further fix +) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1606369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1606369] Re: Compiz ‘Thumbnail Window Previews’ artefacts (further fix +)
The solution proposed by David Black won't eliminate all artefacts related to the thumbnail window previews. To see this, apply the proposed solution and then just type "wish" in a MATE-Terminal. The resulting window has a geometry of 200x200, and the corresponding thumbnail still gives rise to the reported artefact. Same problem with any other top-level window having a sufficiently small size. Alternative solution: Change org.compiz.profiles.mate.plugins.thumbnail.border from the value 12 to 19 (or higher). With this patch, I could no longer reproduce that annoying thumbnail artefact, regardless of whether the change proposed by David Black was in effect or not. BTW: IMHO, the shadow effect generated by the original offset value of 6 (for active-shadow-x-offset, active-shadow-y-offset, inactive- shadow-x-offset and inactive-shadow-y-offset) looks better than the one corresponding to the proposed offset value of 2). Of course, this is just matter of taste. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606369 Title: Compiz ‘Thumbnail Window Previews’ artefacts (further fix +) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1606369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
