In classic mode, the separators in the places menu look markedly different from the ones in the system menu.

(tested with gnome-shell 3.15.91, gnome-shell-extensions 3.15.90)

As far as I can see, this isn't specific to classic mode (most app menus look like that), and they are not actually different - they just happen to be in menus that are significantly narrower than the system menu ...
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2015-03-05 13:08:04 UTC
in any case, they look wrong to me...
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2015-03-05 13:08:40 UTC
and no, I don't want them just to be removed (which I know the designers are going to suggest)
Comment 4 Florian Müllner 2015-03-06 11:19:03 UTC
Well, there are basically two options:
  - decrease the separator margin, so the
    visible part gets wider
  - increase the minimum menu width
Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2015-03-06 13:16:23 UTC
You could try to be smart with something like: Use the wide margin, but don't let the separator get shorter than half the menu width.

But maybe thats too much effort.
Comment 6 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 14:14:02 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
