What's the right terminology for Unity's UI elements?
- by Bou
Hi,
I've sent a few mails to the Ayatana mailing list regarding some UI suggestions for Unity, but I'm afraid I keep confusing the right terms for the UI element, so I would like to have some clarification.
Is the bar at the top called "panel"?
Does the Ubuntu logo at the top left corner have a name?
Is the left sidebar called "dock"?
Are the coloured tiles with app icons on them called "launchers"?
Is the purple tile called "workspace switcher"?
Are the fullscreen things that appear when you click the Ubuntu logo, the Places tile or the Apps tile, called "dash"? Do they all have the same name?
