GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 636637
Better design for background selection
Last modified: 2018-07-03 14:05:49 UTC
Background selection is taking too much space in the main toolbar and it's not so often used. We should have a UI solution for stuff that is less frequently used in the toolbar. I think a bubble activated from a button in toolbar can be an good option. Need mockups.

Chris, thanks for sharing your mockup. Yes, this is more or less what I have in mind for the UI. I should be focusing on this on other related UI changes on the next release cycle (0.3.0).
the-board is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes in early 2011. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/the-board/commits/master Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
