GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 632738
Sound menu changes width when moving volume slider
Last modified: 2010-11-21 20:07:29 UTC
When you move the sound volume slider from 100% to something else, the text gets shorter and the menu isn't as wide as before. This creates an empty area between the end of the menu and the left side of the screen. When you go the reverse, form < 100% to 100%, there's a strange effect, which I guess is due to the menu getting out of the screen for one instant. Simple solution is of course to force the label to be wide enough to display both texts.

This is no longer reproduceable in current master, in case you cannot reproduce it either feel free to close the bug.
It's not reproducible because the layout is table-like now, and "Sound Preferences" is longer than "Output: 100%", so the width ends up being determined by that. However, the problem might still occur in other languages (Chinese seems especially likely), or might come back in English if we reword things.
The volume percentage has been removed from the menu, so closing as obsolete now.
