Hi all, A new version of the HIG is in the works, to be released along with GNOME 3.14 [1]. I'm currently looking for feedback. I'm particularly interested to know if anything is missing, confusing, or incorrect from a technical point of view (like if any of the recommendations are impossible or very difficult to do with current GTK+). To read the latest version, just clone gnome-devel-docs and open hig3/C/index.page with Yelp. Thanks!

Please note that while I plan to write a small app in near future I have 0 experience with GTK+ and even less with the design so I might simply misunderstood something: - Code samples or links to the GTK+ documentation would be nice as I imagine some UI elements are named for their role rather then the GTK+ widget. Probably the samples are too much work in 3.14 timeframe but links to documentation would be nice (for example should sidebar be implemented by GtkPlacesSidebar?) - Sidebar lists image shows primary windows and application menu - I guess different image was intended. - Possibly middle mouse button should be discouraged as well due to confusion with scroll events some mouses have. I had 'fun' using one application (not in Gnome) where some basic operation was only accessible through this method. - Some sections seems to be meant to be 'obligatory' for beginners (Essentials or Getting Started) - it would be nice to have next/prev link instead of relaying on back/next button in yelp Best regards
