Michael, point taken about the Karmic icon not being loud enough to grab your attention. However, I think that's more the purpose of notifications -- the superimposition with application windows, movement, and use of a larger icon are meant to attract your attention. Indicators, on the other hand, should definitely convey information when you look at them, although I am not sure that we would want them loud enough so they attract your attention otherwise. I would hate for users to be unable to ignore indicators; for example, you have unread messages but are trying to focus on writing a document -- would a louder indicator icon begin to irritate you?
** Summary changed: - Indicator-applet icon for "new message" is too visually similar too the default icon + "Unread Messages" icon is difficult to distinguish from default icon -- "Unread Messages" icon is difficult to distinguish from default icon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392265 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
