I'm not saying I agree with it, just that this is probably the reason why they've moved the windows controls by default to the left - perhaps they are attempting to redefine how we interact with a window decorator...? I do like the idea of windicators though. :) Excited to see how this might be adopted. I've changed my window controls back to the right hand side after upgrading to lucid by the way. I couldn't get used to them being on the left hand side - even though I use a Mac at work! :P How's that for weird. I don't associate closing the application with decorations on the left. -- ubuntu-art mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
