Hi Jim,
I think HUD is a part of Unity but not Dash. HUD is not available in
gnome 2 or Kubuntu. So its best fitted in second chapter but with a
separate heading.
That's my take on HUD. Feel free to discuss.

I'll get Alt+F2 in there in the next rev. Thanks.
With regards to where HUD should go. Yea...I struggled with this
one, too. It has the same type of capability as the Dash (users
enter search string, suggestions appear), but the HUD is MUCH more
global in reach than just the desktop and it applies to
applications...not the desktop environment, which supports your
comment about it going into another section of its own.
Do you think it would be better to include the description of the
HUD feature in the 'help' section at the end of Chapter two?
Seems this might be a better place. Also, it could be included in
the applications section in another chapter.
Thoughts?

Hi Jim,
Thank you for merging the topic into the main file. I have a
question though. Do you think we should have HUD as a separate
section in the chapter? The way it has been implemented in the
chapter, it looks like HUD is a feature of Dash, which is not
correct. HUD is a completely different application.
Also, under the heading searching for commands, Alt+F2 should
come, which is actually used for searching and/or executing
commands.

Hello everyone!
I incorporated Sayantan's HUD feature into Chapter 2. I
also got MOST, but not ALL of the screenshots done for
Chapter 2. I hope to have these completed and pushed by
Wednesday evening. I'm also editing as I go, so I do hope
that the push on Wednesday evening will be a 'virtually
completed' Chapter 2...of course, another set of eyes on
it certainly would be welcome.

I have had a look through the nautilus to end of
chapter section, and made some changes, including
that you can now change the size of launcher icons.
Where do I need to put it?

Hi John,
Thanks for doing so. Good idea, to add "launcher icon
size". There is a screenshot, page 32 in my
manual.pdf, with the "Launcer icon size" slider at
the bottom, but that screenshot is about Appearance
preferences. You may add the text wherever you think
is the best place.
Regards,
Hannie
Sorry, I misunderstood your e-mail. Patrick already
answered how to push it to Launchpad. If you are not
sure how to do it, please send ubuntu-desktop.tex to
me and I will push it for you.
Regards,
Hannie
