Description Luka Napotnik 2005-06-30 09:07:08 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
if i run several tray applets(like eggtrayicon-sample) the existing applets
vanish becose there's not enough space for other applets.

Steps to reproduce:
1. run eggtrayicon-sample multiple times until other applets vanish.

Actual results:
other applets (like the clock or virtual desktops) vanish.

Expected results:
some kind of combo to view hidden applets

Does this happen every time?
yes

kind of the same issue as #131332, maybe these bug should be moved to the Panel
component which should handle these case by scrolling maybe?
Comment 4 Fabio Durán Verdugo 2010-12-13 03:30:11 UTC 
This bug was reported against a version which is not supported any more. Developers are no longer working on this version so there will not be any bug fixes for it.
Can you please check again if the issue you reported here still happens in a recent version of GNOME and update this report by adding a comment and adjusting the 'Version' field?

Again thank you for reporting this and sorry that it could not be fixed for the version you originally used here.

Without feedback this report will be closed as INCOMPLETE after 6 weeks.
