GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 67723
Preferences should be in Gnome-CC
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
The Preferences (accessible through the Preferences menu) should be its own section in Gnome Control Center, similar to the way that Sawfish is. This idea is based on the 1.5.x tree of the Control Center.
At some point we might do this. I'm not sure what the pros and cons are, but at first glance it sounds like a good idea.
professional hat off, this sounds like a really nice idea- it only makes sense that preferences:// in nautilus actually be preferences:// for nautilus :) [BTW, Darin, you probably don't hear this enough, but since I'm here: I've always argued against using nautilus for preferences, but the new nautilus is soooo much faster I've completely dropped any objections to that. Thanks for all the good work.]
Just wanted to chime in here. I think that putting the preferences for nautilus desktop and icon.list view icons in the gnomecc is a good idea as these could be incorporated into metatheme for a more complete gnome themer. However specific nautilus options like speed tradeoffs, icon/list view option etc. should stay in the nautilus specific preferences, not in gnomecc.
new prefernece dialog fixes this.
