Problems with Window List on vertical panels
Last modified: 2009-03-09 00:06:20 UTC
Please describe the problem: Window List works bad on the vertical panels. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create an vertical panel. 2. Add the Window List applet. Actual results: The whole applet and its windows are viewed as vertical. But the windows' titles are viewed as horizontal. Expected results: Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information: I would like to set the position of the WL applet: 1. view them vertically (the text would be in the vertical direction) -- for vertical panels 2. view them horizontally (the text would be in the horizontal direction) -- it would be good on very large vertical panels 3. view the window's icons only
This is a duplicate of http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86382 The problem is still exists in 2009 with gnome-panel 2.24.1. But if we set the panel width to 32 or more pixels we can see the icons. (Oh great. That a bad panel. Already: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/332563 under Ubuntu/Intrepid)
