Charline, the Add a launcher quicklist that links to Personal, Internet and Network, Hardware, System and Other setting categories. isn't very clear and doesn't map with what is contained in gnome-control-center in Oneiric. There are categories containing those names, but not element in it. I can maybe map Personal to User Accounts, and Hardware to Additional drivers, but I can't find anything mapping directly to the other items on the Quicklist. Can you please be more precise and directly name elements in gnome-control-center?

[Ubuntu-translations-coordinators] [Bug 764744] Re: [UIFe] Add system setting icon to Launcher
Just to be clear, the only approval that the docteam has given to this is to add an icon to the launcher. If, as appears to be proposed, the system settings icon is also *removed* from the session menu, it seems to me that this will break every piece of documentation that refers to system settings. I haven't checked but I would assume that there are a lot of these and therefore we can't agree to this at this late stage in the release cycle. This comment might be redundant in circumstances where the release team has rejected the UIFE but I thought it was worth clarifying anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/764744 Title: [UIFe] Add system setting icon to Launcher Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Released Status in Ubuntu Translations: New Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In usability testing, participants didn't find the system settings.

[Ubuntu-translations-coordinators] [Bug 764744] Re: [UIFe] Add system setting icon to Launcher
I think the User Testing in this case is wrong or points to a misleading result. System Settings is quite a bit more discoverable in Ubuntu 11.10 than it was in 11.04. Here are several different ways of launching it: 1. At the bottom of most indicators is a button like Sound Settings which opens System Settings to the Sound panel with a button in the toolbar for All Settings. 2. Searching in the Dash also works well (Type in Mouse for instance). 3. And of course System Settings in the System Menu (now with an extra gear subicon) Off-topic rant: the default launcher icons aren't all that useful. I complained about Ubuntu One being there in the very quickly closed bug 775251. And while it's nice to see that Ubuntu can open spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations, most people don't do that very often. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/764744 Title: [UIFe] Add system setting icon to Launcher Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Released Status in Ubuntu Translations: New Status in Unity: New Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In usability testing, participants didn't find the system settings.
