Kasutajamugavuse täiustused

Kasutusmugavus on GNOME'i üks kõrgemaid prioriteete, ja GNOME'i toetajad kindlustavad jätkuvalt seda, et GNOME vastaks tarkvara kasutusmugavuse kõrgematele standarditele. GNOME 2.16 sisaldab uuendusi, mis lihtsustavad faili ligipääsuõiguste muutmist, vigade teatamist, töölauariba rakendi kasutamist ja rakenduse käivitajate loomist.

3.1. Mugavam faili ligipääsulubade muutmine

Sometimes it's necessary to change the file permissions of everything within a certain folder. The Nautilus File Manager now supports this by right-clicking a folder and selecting Properties ▸ Permissions.

Lisaks sellele sisaldab GNOME 2.16

3.2. Lihtsustatud vigade teatamine

To ensure that GNOME bugs are resolved quickly, developers depend on bug reports provided by users. To simplify the process of filing bug reports, the Bug-Buddy utility is now automatically launched when a GNOME application crashes. To help users save time, the new version asks fewer questions and displays everything in a single window.

3.3. Töölauariba täiustused

Now Deskbar, a powerful utility for searching your files and the web, is even faster to use and takes up less space on your screen. Pressing Alt+F3 (or clicking on its icon) allows you to directly enter search terms -- your hands can remain on the keyboard all the time.

3.4. Valmis stardiks

Launchers are a flexible means to start a particular application, to execute a command, or to open a particular folder or Web page. GNOME 2.16 streamlines the process of creating custom launchers with a redesigned, easy-to-use dialog.
