GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 641987
Make the app view more predictable
Last modified: 2011-02-10 10:24:30 UTC
Both scroll position and applied filter are kept between "invocations", which does not really make much sense to me. (I know that bug 638271 calls for the removal of the application filters, but while we still have them around they should behave properly).
Created attachment 180542 [details] [review] app-view: Reset scroll position on switch When switching to the application view, the view is still scrolled to the position it had when left previously. Given that it is rather unlikely that the application the user wants to select is located close to that position, it appears beneficial to start at a predictable position, so make sure that the scroll position is always reset to the top.
Created attachment 180543 [details] [review] app-display: Always select "All" filter on switch When switching to the app view, it is unlikely that a user is going to select an application from the same filter list as the last time the view was used, so reset the view to the "All" filter on switch.
Review of attachment 180542 [details] [review]: Makes sense.
Review of attachment 180543 [details] [review]: This too.
