Other apps like kmail also have this order: actions -------- setup -------- quit Subject: Re: System Tray icon menu controls are cumbersome And if your systray is at the side of your desktop (or at the top) and there is enough place for the menu downwards, the standard-menu-order is much better than (config-controls-quit)... Arnold Is this a usability consistancy issue? It would be more useful to me if the control options are at the bottom. 90% of the time I want to start, stop, skip, ect. and they should be near the mouse when the popup appears. Bring this up on whatever usabvility-list you can find (I'm not following all the strange usability folks so I cannot point you to a specific list). This is not a Noatun issue because apps like KMail alse have the "problem" if I follow your logic. KMail Example: "Check for new mail" is at the top of the popup whereas "Quit" is the bottommost item. As long as there is no clear guideline on how such popups look like Noatun will stick to the system other apps are using, i.e. quit at the bottom and actions at the top of the popupmenu. |
