GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 543913
User name printed backwards when dragging gnome-panel left or right
Last modified: 2011-06-10 12:25:15 UTC
Please describe the problem: User name in FUSA doesn't change orientation when you drag gnome-panel from left to right or vice-versa. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start with gnome-panel at screen top or screen bottom. 2. Drag gnome-panel to the left side of the screen. 3. Drag gnome-panel to the right side of the screen. Actual results: User name or the word "Users" don't change orientation when dragging left/right and is printed backwards with respect to the menu and the clock. Expected results: User name or "Users" is printed with the same orientation as the menu and the clock. Does this happen every time? Yes.
Yes, I can reproduce this on my system. Confirming bug and setting status to new. Thanks for the report Daniele.
So it does. How very strange! I must admit I'd never noticed that before. I'll try to figure out why, but I'm rather busy at the moment, so if anyone else wants to try it, feel free. (It didn't happen the first time I tried it, but on subsequent tries it did.)
fast-user-switch-applet development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few years now. Maintainers don't have future development plan so i am closing the bugs as WONTFIX. Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility of active development.
