So what about those functions when they are relevant? There has been more than once in the past few months where I've been in an Open/Save file dialog and attempted to right click on a file to get more information about it, change permissions, rename, ... whatever one might want to do in nautilus. This usually results in an eye roll and/or bad language. Invariably I end up then having to open a nautilus window ... wait ... wait ... wait ... make my way to that file and do what I wanted to do anyway (or, more often I open gnome-terminal and do it from the command line, but that is a luxury that most new users do not have). I'm sorry, but from a usability point of view, this is not a good example of usability, especially for functionality that is inherent in the api. -- Steeve McCauley [EMAIL PROTECTED] :wq http://oneguycoding.com Your project will be late. _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
