I don't think gconf-editor should become the 'main' application for people to configure their settings. I think in alacarte such a setting switch would make most sense.

It's there, last tab of the appearance capplet. Was using the gconf key to make the question less ambiguous ;-)

Indeed. Shows that it's not where I would have expected it ;) but at least it's already accessible by gui. That point would be solved.

Nevertheless: the menu looks 'broken' without icons. (might also look this way for people migrating from windows. Even there every item has it's icon.

The most aweasome Andreas Nilsson points out that on Windows, many (most?) apps don't have window icons.

And honestly, I don't know how often I only look at the icon in choosing the right item in the menu. Not having them would force me to learn reading.

As I wrote on IRC (and repeating it here because it's important for other people who will try this): when testing this change, use it for one or two days. It's expected that the first reaction is "baaaah, where are my icons" where you're used to seeing them all the time :-) But life can get better without them too ;-) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
