Comment 1 Anna Marie Dirks 2003-09-18 16:27:18 UTC
Your capitalization of #7 is not consistent with your other labels. Do
you think that we should use "Virtual Folder" as a proper noun everywhere?

I am also concerned about #2 -- that is really rather a lengthy label,
do you have any thoughts about how it might be slimmed down? In my
experience, many people get very lazy to the point of tuning out when
met with long labels.
Comment 2 Eugene O'Connor 2003-10-08 11:59:07 UTC
You're right - #2 is too long and the capitalization in #7 is
inconsistent. These items have different capitalization because they
are  group box labels (see capitalization rules in
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/draft_hig_new/design-text-labels.html#layout-capitalization)

How about:

2. s/If/Criteria for Virtual Folder
7. s/vFolder Sources/Sources for Virtual Folder

I was even thinking of shortening these to If and Sources, but I think
that virtual folders will be new to most users, so I think a little
more hand-holding, with more expansive labels is required.

at least retargetting from 2.3 to 2.5
Comment 4 André Klapper 2006-02-11 13:30:08 UTC
adding string keyword - this obviously involves string changes
Comment 5 André Klapper 2006-02-27 23:42:20 UTC
did not happen in 2.5 timeframe, changing target milestone to "future".
not possible for 2.6 because of string changes.
Comment 6 Matthew Barnes 2008-03-11 00:26:57 UTC
Bumping version to a stable release.
Comment 7 Milan Crha 2010-04-06 18:47:51 UTC

Comment 8 Tobias Mueller 2010-05-22 09:20:05 UTC
