@advocatux it is not very easy to describe gesture in a non native language My concern was that the sliding left/right works while you pull the "curtain" down. But once you've release you thumb, the only way to swipe to the neighboring menus is to come back to the upper bar.
Edit : Ach, yes, there is a way to do ! Re-press the pull bar at the very bottom. The one with " ... " written on it.

Perhaps that could be made more obvious, with something like "< ^ >" rather than "..." ?

It would be nice if swiping left/right would also change indicator panels, not just sliding along the handle.

@Opolork I didn't downvote but i have a little riddle: what are the worst words to use on this forum?
A hint: Like in A.......D (replace the dots with the missing letters) -
in my opinion, the Android one is the worst interface for the settings (but also the IoS interface is no joke). It does not need to slide to the right or left obligatorily. The beauty of UT is that if you pull down the curtain from the network indicator, you will have all the network settings, if you pull down from the battery, you will have the battery settings and so on.
In Android, you have to a) open the interface, b) select and / or long press to open the settings. Much less intuitive and fast. IMHO -
I disagree; androids menu is customizable, so I can include only the items I care about, if i want all the settings i would just open the settings app. UT provides too much info on the settings menu, so it becomes difficult and time consuming to find what you're looking for.

I think the top bar is one of the really good design features of UT: it breaks system settings into logical groups, and they're literally one slide of a finger away.It also goes beyond just being a settings feature, with the calendar, and the email/matrix notification functions. Personally I'd like to see that extended more, but I know I'm in a minority on that one.
Making the top bar itself customizable is an interesting idea though: I never use the Files or Language settings, for example, but I know that other people do. And they're always available under the settings icon, of course, for those odd times when they are needed.

Hi dieharddan.
+1 to that. -
@domubpkm, it's okay to learn from other platforms and take what we learn on board. Android is not a four-letter word here.

@Opolork
The layout of the indicators are one of the best design features of the ubuntu touch OS. All required settings in one single location. Loving it. -

@UniSuperBox it sure isn't... It's a seven letter word...
