It might be worth exploring the use of a spinny in the space we place
numbers, but not a progress bar. Mockups welcome.

Do you have any support for your claim that lots of people prefer
using the Dash to Software Center for installing apps?
You cant install apps just yet without opening usc, but the feature is
in progress:

We should:
* support pgUp-pgDn in the Dash
* use overlay scrollbars (i.e. they widen on mouse proximity)
* support good touch gesture scrolling too
Please feel free to file bugs accordingly.

Guys consider these keyboard shortcuts instead of the currently
proposed ones. these basically keep the same pattern of old (e.g.,
Alt+F10 maximizes window and Alt+F9 minimizes window) but instead
switches ALT for SUPER.
Alt+F10 becomes Super+F10

I thought at one point there was supposed to be a blue-highlight of

entry in the Power-Cog: Software Is Up To Date wouldn't it be a
beneficial feature for the Power-Cog to turn blue color
Guys, what about slightly rearranging the order of the power-cog entries?
Can I file a bug for this? Do I have agreement?
This arrangement would seem more logical to me:

dear unity design team,
my biggest complaint is it is a pain to switch tabs on unity especially
when using pidgin to see the pidgin buddy list while having conversation.
to switch between apps open is kind of hard compared to the old one where

I think a list of open windows could be added to the quicklist. Is simple and

What do you use to select a specific window if you dont like the

Selecting windows is not a problem in ubuntu because everything has tabs (eg,
nautilus, terminal, firefox, gedit, etc), so I rarely have multiple windows

But for the rare occasion when I do

What you express, is exactly what I want. I wouldn't want to _replace_

I also like how Spread mode results from a specific user-action, as
opposed to Windows 7 which activates the feature simply from the mouse

Are you using raster icons? That would explain distortion and pixelation.

And, if they are truncated, they run the risk of losing all inherent value.

Yes, you've grasped the basic idea. Indicators are meant primarily as an
indication of something, like a notification that you can or should
respond to. Many applications should rather use a quicklist than an
indicator.
I absolutely agree that Transmission should rather use Quicklists than
