Look and feel:
isolinux theme
plymouth theme
GTK 3.18 support in Mint-X
Sidebar issues
Pathbar buttons (visible in nemo)
Context menus don't look good
new GTK theme
new icon theme
consider making it easy to switch to old theme? (maybe a meta-theme and support for it in cinnamon?).

GTK/Nemo: text entry out of place when renaming a file
GTK: Overlay scrollbars hide content (for instance the last line of text in a text editor when wrapping is disabled)

2016-01-07 13:18:34 +00:00

Upgrade path from Mint 17.3
2015-11-24 08:37:11 +00:00
mate 1.14:
touchpad: tap actions should reflect click actions
2015-11-26 13:15:59 +00:00
mcc: replace sound themes with sound events
2016-01-07 13:18:34 +00:00
multi-monitor: caja doesn't always show the desktop on the primary monitor (using a laptop as main/left monitor, and HDMI screen with higher res on the right, it surprisingly ends up showing icons on the right screen)
2015-11-24 08:37:11 +00:00
cinnamon 3.0:
touchpad: tap actions should reflect click actions
2015-11-26 13:15:59 +00:00
multi-monitor: add an option to suspend on lid-close EVEN when external monitors are plugged
sound: add an option to switch sound to HDMI when an HDMI output device is plugged
2016-01-07 13:18:34 +00:00
menu: search on non-accentuated versions (for instance, "method" should find mintlocale's im in French)
hidpi issues: top of mint menu is cut off in HiDPI (1920×1280)
gnome-system-monitor moves out of place in Expo
when battery is very low, battery icon isn't red.. 2% charge, with less than 5 minutes to go, still not red.. bar is red in CCC, icon is red in notification.. but not in applet (and also not in the CCC icon itself either)
When using Cinnamon bar at top, and secondary monitor with higher height than the main display, some apps like KDE Apps (Krita, Kdenlive) or Wine Based Apps (teamviewer) will display menus from toolbar in the wrong place. Being more specific: The menus will be displayed in the position that they should be displayed at main monitor, however in this case the window is maximized in the secondary monitor.
hovering over notifications which have buttons/widgets should not dim them ...
accessibility: ability to select files by hovering them
2015-11-26 13:15:59 +00:00
mintupdate:
unattended updates? at least provide a CLI to do it via cron?
2016-01-07 13:18:34 +00:00
fix mergelist issues directly in mintupdate or checkAPT
mintinstall: when apt cache is missing, it just says not available. Instead it could tell the user or even help the user to refresh the cache.
mintmenu: dark themes https://github.com/linuxmint/mintmenu/issues/87
2016-02-11 12:49:15 +00:00
mintsystem: review /usr/bin/apt and add missing features (list, search etc..)
2015-11-26 13:15:59 +00:00
2016-02-06 09:38:18 +00:00
people are led to believe the community website is the place for support:
change the order in FF bookmarks -> place Community at the end, after Forums/Blog.
place an info message in the sidebar (or headerbar), and on the registration page to explain the forums are the place to be.
gthumb tries to launch gnome-control-center when applying a background
hexchat: add notifications, hide in/out messages, by default
2016-02-11 12:49:15 +00:00
Ready:
mintsources: add-apt-repository now supports --remove
