In the real world a cardboard folder containing a set of photos will have certain physical properties, ie it may be blue and just over A4 in size. The whole theory of spatial nautilus extends this to directories, so that directory or "folder" called Photos will, for example, have a blue background, be 400x320 pixels in size at position 100,20 until it is moved or altered. In my opinion it does offer great consistency in some ways, but certainly looks strange to people who have used browser style navigation. When I first saw the spatial mode I also hated it, switched it off, but then go curious about what it was about. Since then I've grown to like it and find browsing the file system much less logical. -- Tom Wesley <tom.wesley@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
