--- Comment #14 from Jay Philips <[email protected]> --- (In reply to alexxcons from comment #12) > Agreed .. I did not think about that one. Here was the irc discussion we had about it. brainwash> jphilips: I didn't notice it yesterday.. but why where Trash and Files System moved down inside their groups? <jphilips> brainwash: its there in the commit. to unify their position with tree view <brainwash> I suggest to move at least file system up again <brainwash> it should be on position 1 <jphilips> what is the argument behind that <brainwash> it's part of the system you use <brainwash> the reason why it is at the bottom in tree view is that it functions as last node <brainwash> find last node -> put mounts/volumes above it <brainwash> this could be changed, but the original author did it this way <jphilips> my reasoning for it, in addition to unifying it with tree view, is that the order should be sorted by what is most used. it is more likely that a user would access their partitions and plugged in usb drive or phone over access the root file system <brainwash> but if you have plenty of devices, they will move the file system entry even further down <brainwash> we already moved the whole group down <brainwash> I mean you didn't network above devices, right? <brainwash> despite that being the case in tree view <jphilips> network is an entire group <brainwash> network group about devices group <jphilips> i plan to move network down in tree view <brainwash> above <jphilips> less people access the network than devices <brainwash> but then you most likely will move mounts/volumes below file system too <jphilips> we seem to be misunderstanding each other. i plan to move network after file system in tree view, so its unified with shortcut view <brainwash> I simply don't like that <brainwash> why not move it up to places? <jphilips> move network up to places? <brainwash> file system <jphilips> seems reasonable to be at the bottom of places in shortcut view, but what are your thoughts of why it was put at the top of devices <brainwash> because it is / <brainwash> (root) <brainwash> or you mean why at all? <jphilips> i meant why at all, as do you consider root a device and if so, then it would more logically have to stay under devices <brainwash> jphilips: I want easy access to File System <brainwash> and it not being pushed down so that I have to scroll down <brainwash> it used to be at the very top of the side pane <brainwash> not anymore <jphilips> so i presume you have alot of devices <brainwash> I'm aware that Computer -> File System <brainwash> but that is two clicks <brainwash> you don't even need that many devices, just a smaller window <jphilips> at 1/4th my screen resolution, i only see places, so i would need to scroll to get to anything below it <jphilips> i'm at 1440x900 <brainwash> time to link this one again https://www.dedoimedo.com/images/computers-years/2018-2/xubuntu-cosmic-file-manager-icons.png <jphilips> as you said, its more important for you to have file system at the top, and i believe its better it to be at the bottom, i guess we can leave it to alexxcons to do be the tie breaker <jphilips> or the middle ground of it being at the bottom of places > I will as well move trash back to its original place ... if it should be > moved, we need to talk about it first. > (Sorry, I was to fast with applying the patch) Sorry i thought you would have read the commit message. About trash, should the discussion happen here or in another bug report. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
