Description scootergrisen 2019-05-05 02:23:10 CEST
Would:
"Don't _reserve space on borders"

Be better if it was changed to:
"_Reserve space on borders"

"Dont reverse" sounds like "dont do".

I was looking at the screen while toggeling "Don't _reserve space on borders" on and off and it was a little confusing that when i toggle it on i "dont ...".

I think it would be more logical to reverse the space when it is toggeled on.

I think the reason this was implemented in a "Don't" way is that by default the space is in fact reserved for the panel.

From my point of view the default setting implies that the checkbox is left unchecked and if you want to change the default, you toggle the checkbox.
Anyway, for 4.14 it's too late in the cycle to reverse a setting, that'll be really confusing for users who upgrade...
