Title:
[scopes] Request: Allow to navigate to favorite scopes by clicking the
dot
Status in Ubuntu UX:
Won't Fix
Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Currently favorite scopes are ordered in a certain way, and indicated
by a small dot below the header. In case a scope is activated the dot
turns grey.
To move from the first scope (e.g. today) to for example the sixth (e.g.
twitter) one can
a) slight through (1->2->3->4->5->6) which takes 5 actions, and is pretty
time consuming, since some scopes load slow
b) use the bottom up gesture and look for the scope wanted and click on it.
This is much faster and takes only two actions.
However the dots, lead the average user to take option a) because the
dots indicate a left to right movement to switch scopes. Also by using
the b) option, the dots do not make much sense (because it doesn't
matter whether you are at the third or fifth place in the favorite
list)
Suggested Behavior
================
The dots should be clickable as shortlinks to each favorite scope.
This would:
1. Speed up the process of switching, may be even in the case that one has to
tap twice in order to get the right dot. (may be the margin between the dots
could even be a bit bigger)
2. Give the dots an acutal function/meaning (despite to (mis)lead to
inefficient left right swipes)
--- UX Comment ---
We are currently working on the redesign of the dash/scopes navigation
and the suggested behaviour does not fit with the project plans. We
are testing a prototype of the concept and we’ll share the design
specification as soon as it’s available.
