GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 143118
Window Selector tabs automatically change width
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Current Behaviour: For each application I run, the Window Selector Applet puts one tab into my gnome-panel. But the size of all tabs changes whenever new applications are opened or closed, although there is no need for them to do so. Desired Behaviour: I see no way to determine a default width for the tabs that is used, as long as there is enough space in the panel left. If it is not possible to place all tabs with the default width into the panel, all tabs should be resized to the same width (via the formula [panel_width / num_of_tabs]). If, due to the termination of applications, enough space is present again, the default width is used again.
There's a patch for this in bug 155870. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 155870 ***
