Description Matthias Clasen 2009-07-07 18:09:15 UTC
A few problems when using the display status icon to rotate a monitor:

- The menu stays open after selecting another rotation, meaning that my Alt-R
keypress to revert does not actually go to the confirmation dialog which
appears to have focus. It would be better if the menu closed.

- The confirmation dialog appears on the 'other' monitor which I just rotated.
Making it hard to find and hard to interact with. It should always appear on
the same monitor as the icon I just interacted with.

The display status icon is gone for GNOME 3.x
