Let me suggest that the situation where there are no Activities "open" does deserve a 'special case'. If there are Activities "open", I would like to use alt-tab to switch among the places where I can interact, without passing through Journal. And I do want to "one click in Home" (or use F4) to bring up the most recent "open" Activity I had visited. But I do not want that "one click in Home" (or F4) to take me to Journal, when there is still any Activity "open". [The alternative is to select from Frame (or use select or alt-tab in Journal) to go to the Activity I want - which requires me to multi-step.] However, when there are no "open" Activities - why "waste" the location under the XO in Home View circle. In this 'special case', do show the icon for Journal there. [Maybe the Journal icon can be shown within a border, to distinguish it from an Activity icon.] mikus _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
