The stop button should not be removed without replacement.
I like the way evolution displays its current actions and provides a button to
abort each of them - in the status bar. That way, no (mostly greyed out) stop
button is required in the toolbar, and current actions can be aborted right
well... i think it's a very bad idea.
most user, on other os, use the navigation arrow.. remove them, mean annoying
lots of new user on linux.
i even use them very often, without thinking about it. And if you look how
people use win95-vista, you'll see they use it everyday.
So removing it is a
I wish I could right-click the toolbar and select customize as you can
in Firefox. I hate having to use the menus, or learn keyboard shortcuts,
for functions I use frequently (show hidden files and show/hide side
pane for example). I also like to switch between icon and list view (and

I think it's a great idea to have the file browser look like and work
just like the standard internet browser. Simplifying and cleaning up the
interface is a great idea. But, I do think you can make exceptions. The
wording below the icons doesn't distract much and helps the absolute
novice. You

Nautilus file browser toolbar is complicated, redundant, and ugly
Here's my proposal (mixing some of yours):
1. merge main and location toolbar
2. always show the directory toolbar (the one you have when you go to trash)
and put some common tasks (new, copy, cut, paste, trash, change view)
3. optionally change the search button with a GtkEntry (you can also put
Here are mines :
1. Place all shorcuts in sidebar (i.e. Computer) - no shorcuts in toolbar.
2. Don't replace the Location Bar with Search field it seems confusing to me
(note that GTKFileChooser acts in a similar way but not exactly and i find
GTKFileChooser to be less confusing than Nautilus i
Well, if you ask me, this proposal is actually my preferred design:

File transfer on a desktop is a lot faster than over the internet. Most
of the time, the stop and refresh buttons are not used, so I think they
can be hidden
I definitely agree the current Nautilus view is far too complicated. It
should be pared down, and should take up less screen real estate. There
should be one menu bar and one tool bar, that is it. Another row of
chrome is acceptable to show tabs. Anything above this is guaranteed to
be too much.
considering my comment 40 i changed my mind
finally it's logical to have the search field replacing the location bar since
there is no location to display when doing a search (by definition)
Therefore here are my suggestions :
1. fix Bug #57210 (already done!)
2. Let the Location bar distinct :
I believe that Gnome's default for nautilus is spatial mode ;)

Hi Michael, thanks for the info. Surprises me the fact I never noticed
the option to change to tree view. I think this thread still goes other
ways anyway, but for me, my problem is solved! :-)

@bruno.braga: it does not ;)
I would like to see tree view, too. It's faster and would, in a way,
replace the location-bar-thingy, which imo is a bad compromise.

Buttons are too bulky for the breadcrumb. I'd prefer a different widget;
something that made them all look like part something, but independent
within. If anyone else shares the sentiment, I can make a mockup.
The zoom buttons in the statusbar is a good choice, as is the right-
aligned search
Here is second mockup with zoom icons moved into statusbar.

Hi guys,
I think that there should be option to create your own toolbar in Nautilus.
Whatever we will put together will never 100% satisfy all users (especially
power users) and at the end linux is also about choice.
Evince and Eye of Gnome have this option (if you go to Edit - Toolbar) and I
David's second mockup
(http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27798051/simple_nautilus_2.png) looks very
similar to Thunar interface to me (the file manager of Xfce).
Everyone liking the mockup may want to take a look at the cap attached.

i agress that something needs to be done with the default view of nautilus.
on a 1280x800 laptop screen, the toolbars are taking up a lot of screen real
estate.
one other thing that i've noticed thunar has that nautilus doesn't is the used
space of the viewed folder in the status bar.

That might sound stupid, but I kind of miss the tree view style to
navigate into sub-folders, etc, without actually opening the folder
itself. This is specially annoying if you have too many files in one
single folder (such as logs, etc), which consumes machine resources even
though you are
I would also like to discuss the possibility to add other buttons (cut
copy past trash): in a filemanager they are useful, and it's really easy
to add them (just edit nautilus-navigation-window-ui.xml)

2. What does the Stop button do?
The stop button makes it possible to stop loading network/remote folders
and folders with a lot of items: quite handy when you have to browse a
lot on the local network.
I like the mockups. To simplify things further, why not leave out the
back and forward
I like and use everything in the current nautilus tool bar, zoom,
location bar, and like the large icons. The options are there if anyone
wants to disable items, rather then change it (which I don't think is
necessary) we should just make it so it can be edited with ease (like in
epiphany).
The tabbing functionality in Nautilus is something that I often use. But I
always have to use Ctrl-T
to open a new tab or click thru the menus to open a new tab. How about adding a
new new tab button
to the Nautilus toolbar which would open a new tabbed Nautilus window?

Nautilus file
I remember seeing a mockup of Nautilus once (on planet.gnome.org) where the
zoom and view controls where moved to the status bar. In place of these
controls was a search field.
It's a pretty good idea because it makes use of a mostly unused space to keep
functionalities.

Some comments there:
- GNOME has a preference to display labels on toolbar or not, see the interface
tab in the appareance capplet
- changing all the button to don't display text doesn't seem the best move, you
might want to change the default desktop option if you think that's really a
good
Why do back, forward, up, stop, etc. have text labels? They don't have
text labels in Firefox.
Firefox doesn't respect GNOME's toolbar settings. It's a great
achievement that is uses GTK style and icons...

I like the mockups. To simplify things further, why not leave out the
back and forward button as well? The up button, the directories shown in
the browser and the bread-crumb location bar make these a bit
superfluous.

The right way (IMHO) is reduce from 2 toolbars to 1.
About removing strings, just change the priority for Previus and Next
items.
