Window Indicators

Will they arrive for 11.10? [IMG]http://www.markshuttleworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/windicators-mockup.png[/IMG] http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/333

Do we really need them? Isn't that just adding clutter?

I think the "windicators" were the precursor to Unity's maximizing into the panel.

From what I've seen Window Indicators have been put on the back burner for the time being. Whether they will be revisited in Oneiric, we'll have to wait and seem, UDS-O doesn't start until the 9th of May.

At least it seems windicators don't make much sense with where we are now.

At this point it would only be clutter and horribly annoying1

With the title bar now integrating in to the panel when a program goes full screen, aren't they aleady "technically" there?:confused: The only difference that I see (aesthetically that is) is that programs that aren't full screen don't have them.

They would be totally pointless now that the window maximises into the panel. Windicators as they are in that mickup will never be.

I like the idea of the sound control thing on the window indicator. However at the moment I think we need to concentrate on getting Unity fixed.

I hope so, I really loved those icons. I do know that you can add some things to it now (http://bit.ly/kxwlVG), but that's just too complicated. You can get it by running the old program that managed it though (don't remember what it was called--indicator-applet maybe?)
