Public bug reported: A very large number of users want to have the window control buttons (minimize, maximize, close) to the right. Reasons include consistency with other desktop environments, consistency with Chrome, being left- handed, living in a right-to-left locale etc.

When Unity decided to ignore that setting, a slew of bugs were filed (see bug 1309942). IMO, this is not a setting that should require a 3rd party tool to enforce. Linux is all about choice. Please allow users to choose the location of the window controls. ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1622043 Title: Allow the user to move window controls to the right To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1622043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
