[Bug 1273671] [NEW] Unity DASH is confusing for newbie

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

Hi when I open DASH, home screen is all right, There are icons and
squaresh behind them. But in "Applications" tabs there are some text etc
and when someone hover on them by cursor, there are huge rectangle that
do not corespond in size to text. It is confusing because something is
expected by text and something different then happens.

I mean, it is not bad, but it will confuse newbies. I think small, tiny
shapes there would be usefull and then it will act like expected -
rectangles will glow properly.
