Disks

Some design musings for the Disks app.

Issues

Issues with the current implementation:

  • Doesn't quite follow the GNOME 3 app design patterns (eg. sidebar list, headerbar).
  • Volume names get truncated in the diagram.
  • Attached toolbar buttons are often ambiguous (minus symbol == delete, gear == menu).

Ideas

  • Use the GNOME 3 patterns.
  • Use a list instead of a horizontal diagram.
  • Put volume information and actions into a separate page (or maybe a dialog window).
