[Bug 1396804] Re: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop)
While we could do that, that would mean that we'd have to change the icon name to something new, like from system-file-manager to system-file-manager-settings or even thunar-settings to be more specific. The problem I see with this solution is that 1) there is no precedence, so no other icon-theme will supply this icon. Meaning if the user switches to a different theme, that'll look bad. 2) I'm not sure this is a real solution. Only changing the icon and not the label implies that an icon will create a clear distinction between the two, I'm a bit doubtful that really can be achieved. Another option I could imagine is hiding that launcher altogether. After all, no other application has its preferences dialog hooked into the settings manager. So it would still remain accessible via Thunar's Edit Preferences menu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396804 Title: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1396804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

How about using a different icon for thunar-settings?

[Bug 1396804] Re: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop)
I acknowledge the problem, but for the moment I don't see a good solution for this problem. Renaming is problematic because: * it creates an inconsistency with other items in the Settings Manager (Desktop vs. Desktop Settings, or Display vs. Display Settings) * the translations in the desktop file would all have to be updated. We could also try to hide it from whisker-menu but keep showing it in the Settings Manager, but that again would be inconsistent with the other settings-items showing up in the list. If anybody has good ideas on how to solve this, don't hesitate to comment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396804 Title: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1396804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1396804] Re: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop)
What about seriously thinking about making those changes across all the settings launchers? I know its a bit drastic for this one issue, but its not just one issue I think. Making the changes across the board fixes it all, while maintaining consistency. Yes, it's a bit of work, but seeing Display Settings vs Display definitely sounds like the way it should've been from the get go. Here's a list of all the ones I that I think would need to be updated. Some make this list because they are vague, others make this list to satisfy consistency. Desktop (Desktop Settings) File Manager (File Manager Settings) Light Locker Settings (!Already Does This!) Notifications (Notification Settings) Panel (Panel Settings) Window Manager (Window Manager Settings) Workspaces (Workspaces Settings) Display (Display Settings) Keyboard (Keyboard Settings) Mouse and Touchpad (Mouse and Touchpad Settings/ Pointer Settings/ Input Pointer Settings) Removable Drives and Media (Removable Drives and Media Settings) Network (Network Settings) Network Connections (!Fine the way it is!) I would say that due to the character length on some of these changes would only need to be made in the .desktop launchers, everything can stay as is in the Settings Manager. I don't think consistency is an issue there, because in the Settings Manager, it is already labeled as File Manager Preferences, while the .desktop launcher is just File Manager. Of course, there are many translations to think about and I've no clue whats involved with that; if all the translaters are even around, or how this stuff gets translated in the first place. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396804 Title: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1396804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1396804] Re: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop)
I would be opposed to renaming all items in the settings-manager with a -settings postfix. It seems quite redundant, to be honest (in addition to all the translation work it causes). Take a look at other settings managers, e.g. Gnome3 or Unity, there's no -settings there either. Also, not all of the items you mention above are under our control, e.g. Network comes from the network-manager package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396804 Title: Name For Thunar Settings Launcher Is Unclear (thunar-settings.desktop) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1396804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
