Hahahah, there it is, the once-inevitable "Fitt's law" trope. People citing 'Fitt's law" to defend this dumb menu design love to ignore the big D in that "law.

Hahahah, there it is, the once-inevitable "Fitt's law" trope.
People citing 'Fitt's law" to defend this dumb menu design love to ignore the big D in that "law." And what does the D stand for? DISTANCE.
Fitt's law dictates that the menu should be on the application's main frame, because that's closer to where the user is working (thus minimizing D). That's more true today than ever, as screen sizes and resolutions have reached new heights.
- pantulis 4y agoIt's the ratio of the distance and the size what matters, not the distance itself. In this sense the menubar has infinite size because you cannot move the pointer forward it, thus you cannot miss it.
