I often feel like could leverage right click in it's UI a lot more, all I can do if I right click on an app icon for example is open a new window, pin to dash and app details. App details is relatively useless because it's build into the Software Center and only recognizes apps installed from their, a "go to files" button is missing which would be very helpful, I can't hide a app from there using the GUI and for open Windows there is no right click to E.g. force quit or similar.

@gamey Do you mean specifically right-click on app launcher icons in GNOME Shell's dash or apps grid? If so, there are only a few usecases I was able to imagine among the apps I use...

GNOME Calendar being one of them: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1187
GTG being another: https://github.com/getting-things-gnome/gtg/issues/1047

Patches welcome 👀

@gamey Hmm, well the window manager will already prompt you with a modal dialog offering to kill any with an unresponsive mainloop though, so nontechnical users don't need to be fishing for that in a right-click menu (which would not be something even I would have naturally thought to do), I think.

As for hiding an app from the apps list, neither Android nor iOS (last time I tried them) allow you to do that, AFAIK; if you want it gone from the general apps list, you uninstall it, no? 🤔

@gamey Oh, I see what you mean with the "it's a pain to go fishing through ~/.var/app/ " (though Nautilus' search helps). Kind of an advanced user usecase though.

Have you tried the "Warehouse" app? I suspect you'll love it. It has that "Open User Data Folder" shortcut, and much more: https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.flattool.Warehouse

@gamey Oh I see… well, about hiding "minions" apps, my workaround would be to group them into an app folder (dragging them on top of each other) and name that folder "junkyard" 😆 that's the kind of cheating I do on mobile OSes sometimes for infrequent apps…

I wish GNOME Shell's folders grouping interaction was improved though, it has many papercuts that make it not very efficient.

Alors, il y a un truc qui me dépasse avec et : Parfois, quand je boot et que je me log dans ma session, tout est nickel, le touchpad de mon Thinkpad fonctionne nickel : le touch to click, to select et to drag, Jean Passe (force à lui) et des meilleurs... Et... Parfois non, il n'enregistre plus tous les inputs, le drag et le select ne fonctionne juste plus (bref, tout ce qui est à base de double tap en somme). Incompréhensible.

@loptimist @mzfbee J'ai remarqué que ça fait ça quand le touchpad est mouillé, même après l'avoir essuyé, me faut parfois un suspend+resume pour que ça marche à nouveau.

I'm not seeing "add thumbnail mode to the file picker" anywhere in the #gnome five year plan https://foundation.gnome.org/strategicplan/
#linux

nekohayo,
@nekohayo@mastodon.social avatar

@woltiv It's already implemented.
You are looking at the GTK2 file picker.
You need to be running a GTK4 application.

Is there any developer out there who is working on / GUI editor for typesetting documents in /. As much as I love them, modal editors like / are not for me.

@nekohayo@mastodon.social avatar

@astro_ray It already exists? See the "Setzer" app

The Rebel Alliance showing up on May 26th in https://discourse.gnome.org/tag/elections2024, with eleven candidates running for six seats in https://vote.gnome.org/2024/candidates.html, makes for the most intriguing election in years. Lots of young blood and also very fine vintage blood on offer there.

I made this poster to encourage y'all to vote, whatever your blood type is. Using the "Cantarell" font instead of "Inter" on the 1st line symbolically counterbalances the 2nd line's futuristic "Youngblood" font.

@lw64 As a NPC, I'm afraid I cannot do that. The players would hunt me down and lock me in a dungeon.

@nekohayo@mastodon.social avatar

For the time being, the team doesn't want to add support, even in their "Modern Image Formats" plugin, because Chrome & AVIF n' stuff. Uuuuuurghhh 😒

@otto42 ImageMagick already support it. LibGD is interested but would like help ("when", not "if").

However, WordPress always need extra enablement officially, because it does not allow non-whitelisted formats to be used in the media library and publishing.
So yes, WordPress needs explicit "allowed format" support for this to work out of the box. And that would count as "interest from the ecosystem", because, y'know, it is the platform that powers roughly half of websites out there.

Why oh why #libreoffice are you all the sudden installing stupid help files in dozens of languages that I do not even speak. Can't you tell what language is default and only install that one? This latest update is HUGE and unnecessary!

nekohayo,
@nekohayo@mastodon.social avatar

@GoatsLive @jrmat As far as I know, this is not a problem with the Flatpak version from FlatHub.

If you are talking about LibreOffice installed from your distro's packages, then that's your distro's problem, not LibreOffice per se.

#ADHD / #AuDHD / #autism / #neurodivergent folks, plz compare:

In your experience, would UX from the 2nd link distract, overstimulate or bother you in a way that represents an #accessibility issue?

Note: I'm not the one proposing this, I'm not even affected. I ask for the sake of others; polling for statistical sample size.

@vixalientoots If you like that, then don't worry about that specific part, that's already what it does in the branch (my videos don't show the widget's editing UX because that's not what I was curious to poll about)

nekohayo,
@nekohayo@mastodon.social avatar

@vixalientoots It also trims the protocol prefix, if that's what you mean (like other browsers).

@mattiasb Yeah, I think using the world "real" would have caused more confusion than "serious", as anything can be said to be "real" by someone who perceives something, while "serious" is meant to clearly differentiate between an annoyance (still "real") vs something that "disrupts with consequences" levels of severity. i.e. Would it be considered harmful, or annoying, or not at all.
The characters (& choices) limit in polls makes it a bit hard to write things, but I think it's pretty balanced.
