GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 109969
Panel properties, e.g., always on top, are missing.
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
The properties present in Gnome 1.x are not present in Gnome2.2, e.g., always on top, etc. I say etc. because I can't remember what was present from right-clicking in Gnome 1.x, other than Always on Top.
The properties I refer to are here: http://www.labs.redhat.com/gug/users-guide/globalpanelprefs.html
Stays On Top is quite important imho, and many of the others aren't missing, just missing from any menu (gconf-editor is a godsend). Note that panel menus and drawers also need to stay on top (they seem to be controlled separately). From reading the priority key, I'd personally reassign this to High, since the bug has a large impact on _my_ ability to use the panel. YPMV. I'm running Debian 3.0 + backports: Gnome 2.2.1-1woody1, gnome-panel 2.2.1-1woody1, xfree86 4.2.1-3.bunk.4. Bug submitter also ran debian - is this relevant?
Marking as duplicate of bug 95058. If you want to request another option than "stay on top", please open a new bug. "Stay on top" is WONTFIX according to bug 95058. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 95058 ***
