Dear Microsoft:
1. Why is the Start Menu's New Programs hotspot so large? The new programs
list pops up over the top of the e.g. Control Panel selection button, etc.,
when I'm trying to select the Control Panel. This is not intelligent design.
2. Why does the Task Bar _sometimes (only sometimes) decide to lock itself
on top of all windows when I've selected "Auto-hide the Taskbar"? To
continue, I then have to deselect "Keep Taskbar on top of other windows".
And then change it back.
3. Windows launches every application locked as a maximum window instead of
a not-locked maximum window whcih would allow the grab bar to be used. This
is not intelligent design. Question: Why does Windows provide the
capability to lock a window full-screen? Answer: So that you can't move the
window with the grab bar even if you want to.
4. Windows allows applications as they're launched to completely lock up
the GUI, especially Outlook which takes a _very long time to get untangled
from its shorts. This is not intelligent design. Wouldn't it be better to
pop the ap on screen when it's ready to roll?
5. The pop-out Taskbar is quite useful, but it's not intelligently designed
as part of Window's GUI system. There are many "activation points" in
maximized applications that cause the Taskbar to be accidently activated.
E.g.: scroll bars, brower back button, window minimize, max/not max, close
buttons, etc. Windows allows the Taskbar to be positioned
top/bottom/left/right, but all have interference problems. Why not allow the
Taskbar hotspot to be resizable and repositionable?
Except for #2, these are annoyances that occur daily. Please let me know if
there is a better way . . .
Thanks,
Mike
