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.

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.
