Description Arcterex 2003-10-03 20:44:16 UTC
Description of Problem:


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. set up gnome 2.4 with dual head/xinerama
2. set a panel to have the show/hide buttons
3. click right button (panel slides to right screen)
4. click right button again (panel slides to left
screen)

Actual Results:
panel swaps screens without ever hiding itself

Expected Results:
panel should hide itself if the direction of the
button is "offscreen", or slide to the other
screen if the arrow clicked points to the other
screen.

How often does this happen? 
Everytime

Additional Information:
Gentoo 1.4 stable with ~x86 gnome 2.4
