I put the searchbar at the top in Scratchpad because I think it's more convenient in general (despite the small document displacement). However, this is only because my windows don't have toolbars, so the space can easily be used for this. If I'd have toolbars, I would most likely make it appear at the bottom. So I think this should be decided on a case by case level. -- Daniel Borgmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
