Have Microsoft forgotten the lessons they learned so hard since 1995? The start button being in the corner has real usability benefits.
They ruined the taskbar a long time ago, the button grouping thing is absolutely horrible and can only be partially turned off... hopefully they at a minimum kept the full button option somewhere.
And the centering... if new stuff is added and it recenters, it means things are moving all the time. eeek.
- DrBazza 5y agoThe people 'reviewing' the leak last week mentioned that you can move the Start button back to the corner rather than having it centered.
- badsectoracula 5y agoMicrosoft's usability dementia started with them removing the 3D relief from toolbar buttons in Windows 98 to look like plain icons and making menubar labels indistinguishable from toolbar buttons (except text instead of icons) just for the sake of looks, despite all these having different user interactions. Then again they were never completely consistent. For example in Win3.x design 3D elements were supposed to be for those that cause some command to be performed, yet the scrollbar visual design was the same as that of buttons.
