[Bug 1668664] Re: Drop "Open a " from .desktop Actions
I updated the bug description and this patch since the other issues
mentioned earlier have been fixed in Ubuntu's Firefox 56.
** Description changed:
Right-click on Firefox in Unity's Dash (the strip on the left side of the screen).
There are two custom Actions: "Open a New Window" and "Open a New Private Window".
I propose that the "Open a " prefix be dropped.
This provides greater consistency with other apps which just use "New
Window" or "New Document" Actions. Examples include epiphany-browser,
gedit, LibreOffice and Nautilus.
- In GNOME Shell, Actions show in the Activities Overview. GNOME Shell
- includes a default "New Window" action. So in GNOME Shell, the actions
- shown include the duplicate "New Window" and "Open a New Window". (Note
- that an explicit "New Window" shortcut does not duplicate the default
- "New Window" in GNOME Shell as long as the action is named new-window.)
-
- Also, you can drop the OnlyShowIn=Unity; from the Actions since Actions
- are supported in other desktops (GNOME Shell currently ignores that
- anyway).
+ It also provides greater consistency with Firefox's own menus which have
+ those 2 actions withou the "Open a" prefix.
See bug 1668730 for chromium-browser and bug 1668699 for webbrowser-app.
