Minor interface suggestion
« on: February 04, 2007, 12:31:17 pm »

I really like how the old video/music/picture buttons of MC11 are unified with the left pane. One improvement suggestion that I believe will make navigation easier.

How about making these top button stationary? Currently, they scroll down with the content of the pane. This is also consistent with the previous stationary buttons and they would act more toolbar-like, for example they would be more consistent with the new office toolbar system (I don't know what they call it).

I have requested the same thing.

Check these links out for seeing my mockups and suggestions:

In the last link I posted this mockup:



There is an empty useless area below the Search box in the current design. This suggestion would make the position slider area as wide as possible and make the UI look more balanced (IMHO). My last screenshot in the same thread shows the current design:
