Description Jason Cole 2010-02-22 00:50:57 UTC
What happens: the panel does not 'stick' to a side, instead choosing to appear in the center of the screen.

reproduction:
1. change expand option on any panel to not expand
2. change the direction of the panel.

The panel will now be in the center of the screen. This behavior is unexpected, and wrong. It is a duplicate of, but as per the final comment, I am opening a new bug to get this solved 4 years later.

As another portion of the same bug, gnome-panel seems generally bad at remembering where the non-expanded panel lives, often reverting to the center of my screen at login.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-panel/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
