GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 57666
Coordinate background-properties with Nautilus
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
See http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49268 This is a good point, we need to have a coherent UI here. It is "slightly off" at the moment, I'm not sure how it should be or what needs fixing.
Mike Engber did a lot of work to make the two stay in sync during the Nautilus 1.0 development. So the task is to find the specific cases where it doesn't work. I suggest we make individual bug reports for those cases and then close this one.
Has this been followed up on?
Some things still aren't quite right; e.g. the classic pre-GConf problem that the defaults are not in sync between the capplet and Nautilus, so to change the default background you have to edit two places. Also, Nautilus doesn't support the Embossed background type. I think there may be other issues, but not remembering them offhand.
This seems to be working in 1.5.x.
