I don't know what all the fuss is about, it's great not being able to see where things are that you need to click on. I heard that for 15.04 the next phase of this brilliant plan will go into effect - entire windows will be invisible until you mouse over them. Just imagine how slick and stylish your deskop will look, it's gonna be awesome! And that's not all... for 16.04, rumor has it that the whole screen will remain black until you move your mouse. Can you imagine how much space that will save on small screens? I just can't wait, the innovative- thinking of Ubuntu UI designers blows my mind!
But seriously now, this is the worst idea ever (and I've seen many bad ideas since this whole Unity nonsense started). It boggles my mind that menus used to actually be shown all the time, and then somebody sat down and spent the time, going out of their way to implement the auto-hide. It would be fine if we could just agree to disagree by selecting the behavior we prefer (given that the old behavior already existed, my mind boggles even more that such an option was not added at the time this genius made the change). fwiw I'm still happily using Fedora14, which may seem ancient by many measurements, but when it comes to getting things done efficiently I have no complaints at all. Every now and then I take a look at Ubuntu, but it usually only lasts about 20 minutes before I get sick of having to go along with epic fail decisions like this. In fact right now I am typing this on 14.04, probably the last thing I'll be doing on Ubuntu until next year :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/732653 Title: Menus are hidden by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/732653/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
