Re: Applications lens

 

i believe we could use the traditional standard for multiple selection, which is pressing CTRL and clicking/selecting.

i also dont see the point for multiple selection by default.

people would like to filter faster when they are browsing for that specific app (they may sometimes forgot the name of). Might be different for different type of lenses.

Subject: [Unity-design] Applications lens

Dear Ayatana team,The default lenses currently has some unclear issues for me. Take the applicatrions lens for example. What is the reasoning behind having multiple-selection tool in the adwanced search bar? Why would someone want to select eg. development and accessibility simultaneously? In what use-case would it be useful? If i have internet apps selected, and want to take a look at office apps, it takes at least two clicks now: select office apps, and deselect internet apps. A single-selection tool would be much more useful here


Also, why would someone like to select applications rated for only 1 or 2 stars? Again I do not find it useful. A switch to order by rating, name etc would be more like it.An other nice feature would be the ability to reorganize the icons in the app lens. I think it makes the application overview feel much friendly.
