SupSuper posted:the only good things about the updates are the ones they never bother to document anywhere and you only run into them months later and go "oh that's cool" (eg. you can finally change the default audio device on an app-by-app basis) It's a great new feature, but goddamn is that UI amateur hour

1) Hops on exercise bike and opens up Windows laptop to play some drat poker 2) Oh, the lovely poker client with no error recovery requires a machine restart 3) Oh, restart needs to update the OS as well. This shouldn't take look on my tricked out ultrabook from this year. 4) Goes 30 minutes into work out staring at blue screen 5) Wins sit and go, still mad

Lambert posted:It's a great new feature, but goddamn is that UI amateur hour it's a weird reflow issue (for one it should of course reflow in some more sensible arrangement, but it also seems to reflow way too soon for the space available) i also managed to reliably crash my gpu driver by repeatedly resizing the window at the point of reflow ;D

Even then, everything is misaligned. Just look at the Output/Input titles. Or the alignment of Volume.

outside of weird reflow things, they managed to fix a bunch of edge interface jankiness in this update (yes, i use it, the battery savings are actually worth it), but then decided to make it impossible (in any less than ideal viewing circumstances at least) to tell which is the active tab: and this is with (the horrible vista-throwback) acrylic *off*, with acrylic on you add a bunch of other stuff showing through making it even less obvious

Against my better judgment I updated windows 10 yesterday and now middle click on my ThinkPad will no longer open new tabs. It forces it to bring up that scroll up and down arrow thing now. The option to change this is now completely missing from the mouse options I also now get these random black rectangles in Chrome. They scroll with the page so whatever it blocks out cannot be seen unless I refresh the page. Neither of these things happened before the update *sighs and boots up gpedit.smc*

is this the gnome volume control? for whatever reason on the install of fedora i was using that top bar of tabs had a scrollbar hiding literally one extra tab that happened to contain the audio device switcher that i needed to make the audio work. admittedly I'm a loving idiot but that legit took me almost an hour to figure out. that windows one is ugly as sin but i don't think i would have wasted that much time on it

The option is completely gone I tried three different Synaptics drivers and none of them brought it back. I was finally able to get it to behave the way I want by a registry edit lol

If you use the edge light theme the difference between the active tab and inactive tabs is way more apparent. a lighter grey for inactive tabs would probably be too bright so they need to come up with some other visual indicator on the dark theme.
