Description Dan Winship 2013-09-17 15:34:10 UTC
In 3.8, the workspace indicator/switcher in the window list extended all the way to the right and bottom edges of the screen. In 3.10, it does not, making it harder to use.

window-list: Expand workspace button for Fitts'ability

The workspace button used to extend to the bottom edge, which of
course is A Good Thing (tm) - commit ec8f2691071f broke this when
it added an additional container to the hierarchy, expand the
button again to bring back the old mouse-friendly behavior.

Review of attachment 277566 [details] [review]:

fixes the bug, although it also changes the appearance slightly. (It previously appeared to be indented in slightly. Now it's not.)

I was just trying to save you from having to come back to deal with it again if the designers complained :-).

new patch seems both visually and functionally right to me
