Summary: [multiscreen] A few UI suggestions for gnome-display- properties Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: vuntz@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Blocks: 374148 Found By: ---
We have "Resolution", "Refresh Rate:" and "Rotation". They should all have semi-colons.
"Detect Displays" is really too wide. It shouldn't be as wide as the window.
Title of the window contains "monitor". First option contains "screen". Last button contains "displays". See where I'm heading? :-) Monitor is probably the best term to use.
Not quite sure why "Mirror Screens" is at the top. Looks weird to me. I'd try putting it just before the "Detect Displays" button.

Do you mean semi-colons or colons like Refresh Rate currently has?

I of course meant colons. Too much code in my head, I guess ;-)

I'll commit this patch. This is already upstream.
This fixes the HIG spacings, fixes the capitalization and colons, and groups the options under headings.

--- Comment #4 from Federico Mena Quintero federico@novell.com 2009-01-09 14:02:59 MST --- Submitted for GNOME:Factory; this should become part of openSUSE:Factory soon. You need gnome-desktop, gnome-settings-daemon, and gnome-control-center.
gnome-desktop: * Fri Jan 09 2009 federico@novell.com - Added gnome-desktop-randr-gerror.diff. This adds GError reporting to the GnomeRR API, which in turn lets gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-control-center provide good error messages when something fails in multihead configuration. - Removed gnome-desktop-randr-cloned-outputs.diff, as it is already part of the patch above.
gnome-settings-daemon: * Fri Jan 09 2009 - federico@novell.com - Added gnome-settings-daemon-randr-gerror.diff. This makes the RANDR plugin for gnome-settings-daemon process GError arguments from the GnomeRR API, so that it can give good error reporting. - Removed gnome-settings-daemon-randr-fnf7.diff as it is already contained within the patch above.
gnome-control-center: * Fri Jan 09 2009 - federico@novell.com - Added gnome-control-center-randr-gerror.diff. This adds good error reporting when changing the multihead configuration, and fixes these bugs: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381030 - Fix spacings in the display capplet's dialog, labels, and option grouping. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450141 - Remove nonfunctioning Help button. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433939 - Make it more obvious how to turn on a newly-detected monitor that is off. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=551566 - Fix incorrect repainting when resizing the capplet's dialog.
