I first thought that the location bar would be permanent, just like browser_mode to spatial, then soon vice-versa. I soon find out that the user can turn "breadcrumbs/location bar" mode by pressing the "text editor" icon on the leftmost corner.. breadcrumbs mode is still the "default" when launching nautilus. but, wait a minute, "text editor" icon related to turn-on/off that feature? Anyways, people will be happier in the next version, because, GNOME feels very responsive, icons in the menus appear instantanously, and OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 loads 50% much faster than before, and you'll get a funky usplash theme that reminds me of the props used in new wave MTV's during the 80's and early 90's. I tried Edgy btw to test this out, GARNOME is still compiling as I speak. <div>On 8/15/06, Duncan Lithgow <<a href="mailto:duncan@lithgow-schmidt.dk">duncan@lithgow-schmidt.dk</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Tue, 2006-08-15 at 15:14 +0800, Joel Bryan Juliano wrote: > I saw the screenshots of the new GNOME Beta, and currently I'm doing > GARNOME in our university to test it out, and just wondering why the > developers made this decision? Is it a good change from the > breadcrumbs to location bar? I haven't seen it, but if we're talking about using the location bar in nautilus instead of those buttons then yes, it's an improvement. I think it also helps less tech savvy users understand how paths are written - that's still a mystery for many windows users. What I hope it does, or does next, is that you can click on the directory names to open them, but if you double click _after_ the end of the path you get it selected as plain text and can then copy it. -- Linux user: 372812 | GPG key ID: 21A8C63A | <a href="http://lithgow-schmidt.dk">http://lithgow-schmidt.dk</a> -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com </a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
