[Bug 1070541] [NEW] Collapsible menus on Rhythmbox have their arrows on the wrong side

 

Chris Wilson (notgary) has assigned this bug to you for rhythmbox in Ubuntu:

The arrows that indicate the state of the collapsible menu in the
Rhythmbox browser are on the wrong side of their respective menus. The
attached screenshot shows that they are on the right on the menu, when
they should be on the left for the following reasons:

1. The large space between the end of the menu name and the arrow make
it unclear that there is a relationship between the two, leading to user
confusion.

2. Having the arrows on the left is what user's have been trained,
through their use of software, to expect. Having them on the right
violates the principle of least astonishment [1].

I propose that the arrows be moved over to the left.
