GNOME Documentation



These are a couple of the thoughts that have occurred to me while using GNOME or reading your work, for which I thank you. I hope you may find them helpful: Several times, well before Desktop User Guide / Using the Panels / Managing Panels / Moving a Panel, as in Desktop User Guide / Desktop Overview / Windows / Giving Focus to a Window and Desktop Overview / Using the Panels, the advice refers to the panels as being at the top and bottom, and positions on them follow from that. If there is no other way of distinguishing between the panels, perhaps another note should be added to warn of the possibility that the positions might not be as described, as implied by the reference to defaults in Using the Panels / Introduction. At the bottom of Desktop User Guide / Basic Skills is a navigation link to Basic Skills, which is where you are, so clicking it achieves nothing. The same is true of Mouse Skills, Buttons below Mouse Button Conventions, Global Shortcut Keys, Introduction below all of Desktop Overview / Introduction, Using the Panels / Introduction and Desktop User Guide / Working with Files / Introduction, Types of Windows, Switching Between Workspaces, Common Features, Starting a Session, Logging in to GNOME, Startup Programs Tab, Top Edge Panel, Moving a Panel, Interacting With Panel Objects, Adding a Launcher to a Panel, Force Quit Button, To Open and Close a Drawer, Window Selector Applet, Applications Menu, File Manager Functionality, Executing the Default Action, Saving Searches and so on. Also, I can switch between workspaces by moving my mouse cursor to the the top left corner of my screen, so that could presumably be added to your list.
I'd have found it helpful to be told where to find the Sessions preference tool.
