Frame autohide will make a return in our next release.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>If it helps, there are quite a number of us in NZ who go throwing the cursor into the edge waiting for the frame and then realising we have to manually go to the frame key on the keyboard. <br><br>
The frame keyboard key might not be found if a user does not know about the frame or its purpose (forget training as a solution to that, if computers are new then they can't remember everything in the training) and if the user is a mouse/touchpad happy person then they won't like the delay in lifting their hand and moving their fingers over to the frame key. <br>
<br>We consider the frame one of the most important Sugar features as it is the only way for the user to know how many activities they are running (out of memory ergonomics are very poor with too many activities running) and we find the frame an easy way to "stop" activities. <br>
<br>If you can set the time delay it would be good to have it set so not too quick to appear if that is possible. Users new to using a touchpad do struggle to control the cursor so they accidentally end up in the corner quite often while they are learning to control their finger more finely. <br>
<br>Tom thinks there might be a bit deja vu going on here as he thinks the early Dextrose builds had no frame via cursor and then after a mailing list discussion it was brought back. <br><br>Tabitha<br></div></div>
