QuiteRSSīeautiful RSS reader program to use. I wonder how hard it would be to hook in the WINE save dialog instead of the GTK one. This was an amazing time saver in the gtk2 save dialog. This would all be fine, but I'm used to using the up/down arrow keys to walk through similar-named directories (eg uni course codes such as ELEC3111, ELEC3107, ELEC4122, ELEC3106). There is a work-around : I have to type the path into the filename box at the top, and use TAB instead of. I didn't even get an "are you sure?" dialog.ĭata loss is the revenge on those who criticise GNOME 3. I've now just saved over a file somewhere in my home directory. I tried to double-click on a folder and a document replaced it just as I was clicking. "Oh, it looks like the search has finished, I guess it's faster than it used to be and this problem doesn't exist any more!" It's completely useless.Įditorial note: at this point in writing I made the mistake of trying to recreate this particular problem. And when I do find what I'm after: I try to double-click it, only to have another search result shuffle under my mouse in less than a human reaction time. Not to mention now I have to physically look through the search results and find the thing I'm after whilst the results are still streaming in. It's slow, it's messy, and it's only useful for unsorted or lost files, but even then it fails if the user has saved somewhere outside the expected scope. Un-cached search is the worst user interface design ever invented. "Oh, you're typing? You must want to search! Pardon me whilst I spend the next minute pounding your HDD, rooting through your entire home directory because you decided to type the word 'lib'." If I wanted to save to ~/library/uni/ELEC3111/assignment1 I could click on the file list and type: In gtk2: things were very fast and very easy. What matters to me the most is that I can't navigate anywhere as fast as I could with the gtk2 dialog. Let's ignore the fact the sidebar needs almost twice as much screen space for the same content. That's wonderful if you fit into one of those categories, but why not support humans like me too? Be able to structure things perfectly from the get-go and never have to fix stuff.
