[Bug 194421] Re: boot menu should wrap
I think I've seen this request before, but I also think it's rather arguable. The problem here is that people may well have become used to holding down the down arrow to get to the end of the list, and making it wrap would break them. This is a variant of Fitts's law (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts's_law); imagine how it would feel if your mouse wrapped around the edges of the screen. :-) You can use Page Up in the grub menu, which should help. (And yes, the aforementioned people could use Page Down too.) ** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New => Confirmed -- boot menu should wrap https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194421 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
