Dear Sir,
Mr. Satenstein we already told you more then once, that is not the right
place to discuss GNOME design as we are not responsible for that. You even
called us ignorant for that, still wait for an excuse for that misbehaivor.
You are still here to demand your view it should be done because you dont
like to see there is a difference between frequent and favorites. So leave
us alone. Please.
@all others dont feed the troll

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the reply about my feedback. I too, appreciate your feedback.
As I noted, there are a few areas in Gnome where extra thought has/had to
be given to make it worthwhile to implement. Here is what irks me.
The split into FREQUENT and ALL makes me wonder about *FAVOURITES* Bar.
Both are favourites, in my view. By the way, regarding FREQUENT, I decided
to walk through all the applications in the ALL side, and sure enough, the
icon was copied to FREQUENT. But I was unable to determine how to purge
icons in the FREQUENT category. This inability to purge from FREQUENT
really bothered me.
And the other two things that bothered me were (ALL) now no longer had
categories such as programming, system, etc. (so I would not have to scroll
a fully merged list).
One major request, and that is to put the [:::] icon next to the
Activities bar. Having it there will reduce by two, the number of mouse
clicks required to find an application in the ALL side. Positioning it
there may eliminate the "Activities" button.
In closing, I am responding as an end-user. I have done so because I look
to ease of use by end-users as most important. I feel that the end-user
is an afterthought.
Regards

Worth noting that it's very search focused and therefore keyboard friendly.
Hit the overview key (probably has a windows logo on it; hey, at least the
picture makes sense now), start typing the name of your program, and hit
enter when you've got enough to be specific (or mouse when it shows up).
Zero clicks. :)
This is gnome 3.7 (future 3.8), not 4.x, by the way.

I agree that the "extreme slide" you describe here makes workspaces hard to
use.
This extension helps, by making the workspaces already expanded so you
don't
need to go all the way to the edge -- I think it particularly makes sense
with today's typical wide-screen monitors.

Unfortunately, not updated to 3.7 yet.
Particularly if you get in the habit of using the key to activate the
overview rather than the hot corner in the top right, problem mostly
solved.
(I'm still looking for an extension to make the entire top of the screen
activate the overview....)
