[Bug 1368856] Re: [Indicators] Update indicators to match the latest design

 

I can understand some of the reasons for that behaviour. But then can we
make something like keeping some indicators pined to the top bar? For
example, I use the gps a lot, but I don't want it enabled when I'm not
using it because it will consume my battery . I would like a quick way
to enable and disable GPS, without having to open the system settings.

Title:
  [Indicators] Update indicators to match the latest design

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu RTM:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  There is a new indicators design that improves and fixes many of the
  usability issues in the current design.

  New design fixes following issues:
  1. Too small target size for reliably making selection -> false positives
  2. Current design doesn’t support overflow. Or inactive items so that their menu could be accessed.
  3. Movement overload when item changes while going down.
  4. Tabs. Deprecated component and poor navigation.
  5. Invisible locking line in mid point of the screen.

  Specification can be found here:
  https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1jHIGzAzf7kFELgOiU9J0Hd9mOa3NzTsnEglLmx_qEfk/edit

  There is also a prototype of the new design:
  It can be found here: lp:~willow-team/willow/Indicators-Bens-idea/

  There is also a screencast video of the prototype in action here:

  Implementing this would be one way of fixing bug 1285951, bug 1352784,
  and bug 1370799.
