I'm pretty sure very few people (if anybody) uses "Right-click > Previous Page" and "Right-click > Next Page", and the other options would be much more useful to have at the top of the menu, and some of the separator groupings needs to be fixed too. Here's my suggestion of what to do with the menu instead:
```
Highlight Selected Text <----- visible only when non-annotation text is selected
Insert comment annotation <----- visible only when no text nor highlight is selected?
Annotation Properties... <----- visible only when right-clicking a note or highlight
Remove Annotation <----- visible only when right-clicking a note or highlight
--------------------------
Copy <--- sensitive when text is selected only, hidden when right-clicking an image
Copy Image <----- visible only when right-clicking an image

Next Page <--- If you actually keep it

```
Why highlight/annotate at the top, instead of copy? Because highlighting is often a repetitive action, especially when annotating a long text, and it would boost my productivity if I could find that option "right under the mouse cursor" when I right-click. Copying happens less often (and I typically use the Ctrl+C shortcut for copying anyway).https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calculator/-/issues/210Calculator editor should never be right to left2022-01-12T21:59:18ZHKalbasiCalculator editor should never be right to leftThere are some right to left languages in the world, but even in those (AFAIK) numbers are written left to right.

Those cases can detected and excluded.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1455Allow closing of "Find" with shortcut2022-09-28T13:27:20ZDennis ten HooveAllow closing of "Find" with shortcutCurrently you can open the "find" menu by pressing <kbd>CTRL</kbd> + <kbd>F</kbd> but you can not close it using the same shortcut.

Other GNOME applications such as Nautilus and gnome-software do have this behavior.
An issue with this however would be that people will start pressing <kbd>CTRL</kbd> + <kbd>F</kbd> twice to close/refocus. A solution to this issue would be to give it behavior similar to gedit by closing "Find" when no longer in focus, but do keep the search active until the search is manually emptied.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/rygel/-/issues/194Be nicer to the system when a client mass-browses2021-02-18T10:03:47ZJens GeorgBe nicer to the system when a client mass-browsesIf a client does mass-browsing (looking at you, Raumfeld Stereo-S) , we currently consume 100% CPU single-core all the time.

# Description of the feature
Today, I wanted to export a series of images as a single PDF file, which when I did through GIMP, it turned out to be somewhat around 140 MB large file which consisted of 18 pages. And so, I tried using an alternate method by downloading Adobe Scan on my phone. Although it worked through the cloud, it managed to export out the whole PDF in over just 7 MB. So, is there any way to provide compression during the time of exporting to PDF in GIMP?
# Use cases
<!-- If not obvious, explain the use cases or problems to solve. -->
It will be helpful in exporting PDF with less memory taken on disk with the same visual quality.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3481[Touch Screen] App Grid rearranges icons instead of scrolling pages with swip...2023-10-18T20:34:18ZSteven Platt[Touch Screen] App Grid rearranges icons instead of scrolling pages with swipe gesture<!--

### Affected version
* PopOS 20.10 x86_64
* Gnome Shell 3.38.1
* System is running XOrg
* Hardware is Microsoft Surface Go 2
### Bug summary
App Grid rearranges icons instead of scrolling pages with 1-finger swiping.
- Swiping to scroll the app grid _works_ when the initial touch surface is between icons.
- Swiping to scroll the app grid _does not work_ when initial touch begin with touching an icon. In this case, the icon is moved with the swipe.
### Steps to reproduce
A touch screen device must be used to reproduce.
1. Open app drawer on touch screen device.
2. Swipe the app drawer with 1 finger - with initial touch beginning on top of an icon.
### What did you expect to happen
Expected behavior would be to require a long press, or delay to trigger rearranging icons. This behavior would allow compatibility with both touch and non-touch devices.

To help those issues, it would be great if GTK could support CSS logical properties (and the value `logical`, hopefully) for margins/borders/padding. Not only it would make avoiding specificity issues much easier, but also it would make the CSS styling much simpler.

I personally find it an easier movement than click+hold+drag, and I wonder if there would be any opposition to enabling this (I'm guessing it's just an omission in the input callbacks?)
On a related note, I can't scroll out of the first page until the "filling up" animation is done.
(Note that apps like Nautilus do not seem to have this behavior either, but I would say that's a worthwhile, separate, suggestion to make)https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/5411The DDS plugin doesn't support DXGI format 98 and 99 (BC7)2024-02-21T20:48:13ZAlexandre ProkoudineThe DDS plugin doesn't support DXGI format 98 and 99 (BC7)GIMP fails to open the attached file and reports: "Unsupported DXGI format (98)".

The reach of that post rivals some of our release announcements. So it seems that there is as much interest as much surprise that this feature existed at all.
To quote one of the users:
> I don't want to mention how many instances of calc I opened before I realized this was a thing.
It seems that we could do with figuring out how to make math expressions more discoverable.
Another user suggested:
> Maybe put a little calculator icon watermark in the right side of the control when the functionality is available?
While I'm not sure that this is a perfect solution (especially for sliders), I think it's a call for a discussion how we could improve this.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1250Allow bookmarking pages in incognito mode2020-06-29T15:04:30ZjpenalaAllow bookmarking pages in incognito modeI'm not really sure if this is a bug or somekind of 'lockdown' feature, but with Epiphany 3.36.2 there's no way to bookmark pages, because the star is missing from the adress bar.

A better approach for these wallpapers would be to lighten rather than darken then wallpaper, and use dark gray text instead of white.
@verdre and @exalm did some work to detect different types of wallpapers for the transparent panel a while ago, perhaps this could be used here?
There are also some other things we could do that I think could help improve the blur visuals, including
- add a color filter to make colors more saturated/vibrant in the blurred state
- don't darken with pure black, but a slightly tinted dark gray, based on extracting the dominant color from the image
- try to equalize the brigthness/saturation somewhat between different parts of the image
- check if the image is dark/light enough with just blur, and if so don't do any darkening/lighteninghttps://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calculator/-/issues/165Do not create new calculator window on keyboard calculator button press2021-03-11T23:08:44ZEerik PuudistDo not create new calculator window on keyboard calculator button press**Using Ubuntu 19.10 with GNOME**

Some kind of extra hint here, even if only in the message, would be pretty nice. Alternatively, it might be nice if GSocketClient grew an API for reporting details about certificate errors (although that would be a bug against GLib).

~/.config/goa-1.0/accounts.conf has a field called PresentationIdentity. When setting up a Google Account for example, that field gets set to the email address. This field is used in places like Nautilus to show which accounts something is connected to. If the addresses are similar (and long) this can be a bit confusing.
Example:
johnjacobjingleheilmerschmidt@gmail.com and johnjacobjhs@school.edu
If there were an option in the GUI to set the name (to Gmail and School in this example), there would be less confusion in places like Nautilus.
```
Visual Example:
__________|
johnjacobj|
johnjacobj|

Becomes:

Gmail |
School |
