window icons off/minimise/ screen transposed

Asked by RayArdia

Now using 11.04, all seems OK but I notice that in ALL windows the icons fro OFF/minimise/full screen are transposed and now appear in the top lefthand window corner. Is there a reason for this?

My humble apologies - said I was using 11.04, actually 10.04.2 LTS.

I realise that in 'the great sphere of things' this is perhaps a minor matter but I would like to know why this transposition of these two icons (from their usual RH corner position to the LH top corner) has occurred since updating my Ubuntu. May this question remain open please?

Its a design decision made by the devs. A lot of stuff pops up on the left so it makes sense. Unity is also on the left so having the buttons nearby is intelligent. These are just my views. I'm sure there are reasons. Its very easily changed as Linux is very flexible

Can you help with this problem?
