The windows list is far from useless. It constantly shows on screen the list of all open applications, while the vertical mac-style selector has to be clicked to see which are its contents. That's the reason why I prefer it, usually with the "grouping windows from the same app" option disabled. _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
