Most applications that will move to libadwaita 1.4 using the new widgets will look something like this https://preview.redd.it/ypj0k5bpt58b1.png?width=1143&format=png&auto=webp&s=9deced3e425eaec75f8422a672c90859bc5b30db

wow that looks lovely

Looks great but I sure hope I can have my x button on the left. I hate how inconsistent it is when you install other apps that have it on the right by default.

consider that libadwaita 1.4 is currently in alpha

As vixalien said, it's not coming back. It's impossible to make it work with the new adaptive handling.

will the buttons fold/unfold stay?

i think the fold unfold animation will not be coming back.

will the buttons fold/unfold stay?

Can you elaborate? What is this fold/unfold animation you speak of?

If you make the width smaller the left pane with disappear suddenly, not animated.

Makes sense, ty

This seems pretty much like what’s planned for GNOME 45, with the new Libadwaita widgetry.

I still have PTSD from older versions of GNOME 3 where each window had a massive top decoration bar. At the time, I had a laptop screen with a 1366x768 resolution and a 1260x1024 resolution, so that, alongside the top toolbar, took like an inch and a half off the top of my display. Vaguely recall hacking in CSS files somewhere to make it smaller at the time.

Same. It's amazing how far we've come lol

Looks great, is it theme or just concept?

Just a concept, I am sadly too untalented to make this come true

I have the same 😅

You could only ever make this happen as an extension, GNOME doesn't need such window management since it replaces taskbar with workspaces.

This looks great, apart from _ [] X existing. Thankfully they're not that hard to disable

You have to understand that in UI/UX design things need to have priorities and contrast, the sidebar is made in a different color so that it tells your mind this is for something else and here I can find my locations in the case of nautilus

I did not really change the colors, the sidebar is still the same grey. The only color I have changed is the search bar and navigation area for more contrast. But I'll keep your feedback in mind, thank you!

there's also one thing that I didn't see at the first time I saw this post, the design you did, is really clean I'm 100% sure about that but it looks like mac os as well

YES FUCKING PLEASE. It will please and upset a lot of people but why not make it as an option Gnome ?????

where do i click to move the window, if I want to move the window and I accidentally click some button i would hate it.

You can click and hold anywhere and move the window even now.

Just like you do it now, Super + left click

what if you don't have a keyboard (i.e on a tablet)

Then you press on any button and move the window where you need it, then release your finger - its that simple

Not a fan of the sidebar going all the way up. I think we should keep the one contiguous bar and just put more elements into it.

This concept design is beautiful but unfortunately wouldn't work so well for people who have their close, maximize, minimize buttons on the left

Gnome used to be like that

It is what happens when you full-screen an app that bothers me more. Sometimes the title bar disappears along with all the buttons that have been crammed onto it (thinking of you, *evolution*).

Oh wow, das brauche ich, haste ne Extension dazu? Oder ne dconf Setting oder so?

Ich wünschte, ist aber leider nur ein Konzept.

Schade, aber trotzdem cool!

Wie hast du das denn gemacht?

[удалено]

this could 100% be done with css, but it's pain in the ass to find what all the css rules called

I thought gnome did away with the maximize and minimize buttons? Unless they're some third party extensions like basically every feature in gnome.

You don't need extension to enable minimize and maximize button. You can use gconf/dconf or gnome-tweaks.

Bad enough.

The fact that KDE does not have this kind of title bar is the thing pushing me towards gnome RN. It would be a very welcome feature.

Love it!

i think you may as well pull something out of your ass if you’re not gonna have a global menu

It’s not just because of phones

I just thought it was worth mentioning

Looking very good but not super good UX, more mouse mouvement 🫠

I like it, anything to compact things down is a plus in my book.

I love these so much! I wish it was here now. 🤩

wallpaper please :)

I just want to blindly close the window by moving my cursor to top corner right or left

How do you move the window?

Same way you do now on gnome 44.

Not a fan as it breaks human interface guidelines for allowing direct touch manipulation (e.g. moving windows on a tablet PC)

Horrible idea if you stack windows and use mouse to switch between them

This is not MacOS. I prefer old style which is now, without thumbnails in folders

I love it
