| wish_list [2017/06/25 18:09] – [Window manager] laurentius | wish_list [2017/07/15 16:43] – Added a suggestion for a super key hotkey for whisker menu under panel section urata01 |

| * Provide a way to undo changes made in settings. I realize that a Cancel button is anathema to the instant-apply conventions used by the XFCE dialog boxes, but some dialogs provide the user with dozens of edit choices that are not easily remembered by humans. For example, say I want to experiment with the compositor settings to see what each of the sliders affect. I'd have to take a screen-shot of the dialog box prior to making any changes if I want to restore the sliders back to their original positions. | * Provide a way to undo changes made in settings.

| | * Allow a Super hotkey for showing the whisker menu or application menu that doesn't break Super + X hotkeys for things like "Show Desktop" and "Open File Manager". What I mean is that I want to tap the windows key on my keyboard to open the whisker menu, which is possible now. However when that hotkey is set now, it makes it so the hotkeys of window + D for show desktop and window + t for open terminal don't work any more. |

| * When a panel launcher button style is set to "Inside", the normal behavior is to open the panel menu. That's great. PROBLEM: xfce displays an arbitrary command icon on the launcher when it's closed (happens to be the bottom-most icon). This makes no sense: clicking the launcher does not launch that particular icon-- it just opens the launcher menu. Therefor, it's confusing and illogical to display any one of the launcher icons on the closed launcher. It's also annoying if the arbitrary icon displayed is too small, ugly, or otherwise undesirable. The user COULD move their desired icon to the bottom of the launcher-list so it's visible on the closed launcher, but then you're enforcing a sort-order on the launcher menu the user might not want, simply to get the icon they want-- that makes no sense. REQUEST: Instead, when button-style is set to "inside", then the launcher should display a generic "launcher" icon and/or custom icon on the closed launcher. | * When a panel launcher button style is set to "Inside", the normal behavior is to open the panel menu.
