screenshot of master

Nice work getting the new universal access menu landed.  However, it isn't quite up to par visually.

Our current visual design target is:
 http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/UniversalAccess

I'll cc jimmac in case he has an update for that.

I'll attach what it looks like in master now.


 * fix spacing between label and swich
 * improve the style of the switch itself
 * fix the capitalization inconsistencies
 * fix the font style/color issues

the switches are easy to fix once we get svgs for them
Comment 2 Jakub Steiner 2010-09-17 21:02:35 UTC
I've created two alternatives to the widget, but it will only work on a black/dark background. 

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell-design/plain/assets/toggle-dark-us.svg
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell-design/plain/assets/toggle-dark-international.svg

If the widget is supposed to work on any background, it will need to change its colors. I've included a sample rendering of how it might look good on a light background.

Is the toggle animated? Does it work with either a click or a drag? If so, it should light up blue (blend, 100ms) only after the slider is in place.

At the moment the answers are no and no, but I don't know if that was the intent or not. See the questions on http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/UniversalAccess.

This makes the menu label text more closely match the mockups

These don't add the new svg but do remove the temporary css/ascii drawing.
Comment 8 Milan Bouchet-Valat 2010-09-18 16:35:19 UTC
What's the plan regarding the size of the font? Shouldn't it be the same as GTK+ apps? It looks out of place ATM.

"Fix spacing" doesn't mean much by itself maybe a short commit message is needed.

Assuming you like the new style this is fine as well.
Comment 12 William Jon McCann 2010-09-20 21:23:31 UTC
Still need to add the new svg.

Looks nice.  Thanks Dan.

Review of attachment 170759 [details] [review]:

I'm a bit worried that the us/intl split will result in requests to add more localized SVGs for languages with sufficiently short translations of "ON"/"OFF", but well ...

Code looks good.
Comment 16 Dan Winship 2010-09-22 15:13:20 UTC
i think that's everything then
