I've now finalized the subcategories for 2.0. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter?action=diff&rev2=349&rev1=348> Ironically enough, "Sound & Video" is one department I don't think we can split at the moment, because there's such a crossover between music players and movie players.
** Summary changed: - more categories needed in "Get free Software" pane + "Get Software" category lists are too long ** Description changed: - Binary package hint: software-center - Not so much a bug, more of a feature request: the category lists are too long, they could be split down a bit to make software a bit easier to find - this could be done with subcategories. Having to sift through a long list of applications, 3/4 of which aren't relevant to the task in mind, is a long and laborious process - splitting the lists into small "bite size" chunks makes it easier to navigate (and is less intimidating), especially for novices. Example: Sound and video could open up into "Sound Editing", "Video Editing", "Media Playback" and "Music Creation". + + <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#Genre>: "These are the + departments and subsections, in the order in which they should be + presented when presented together..." ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- "Get Software" category lists are too long https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475773 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
