Description Brad Johnson 2002-08-13 01:54:33 UTC 
Description of Problem:

Launchers that are within drawers seem to get
their order reversed when Gnome starts up again. I
have only tested this with two drawers on a corner
panel (on left side of screen), but I imagine it's
the same on any panel.

I created two drawers, one for Internet stuff, one
for useful programs, and I arranged things in the
following order:

Internet: Balsa, Pan, Mozilla, aMSN, gFTP
Programs: gEdit, XMMS, Xine, Xpad, Gaddr

When I restarted Gnome, the drawers instead looked
like:

Internet: gFTP, aMSN, Mozilla, Pan, Balsa
Programs: Gaddt, Xpad, Xine, XMMS, gEdit

I didn't realize at first that things were
reversed, but just assumed that it was related to
the problem that caused my corner panel to be
scrambled every time I restarted (which has since
been fixed)... eventually after a couple of
restarts, I realized stuff is just backwards. This
is from gnome-panel 2.0.6

        * applet.c: (panel_applet_save_position): don't
        save the position backwards if it isn't a packed
        panel. The saved position only has the effect of
        ordering the applets on packed panels, not actually
        specifying the position. Fixes #90598.

This is still not fixed. Now I get the icons shifted by one instead of
the reverse order that I got before. I am running Mandrake cooker, and
the panel about says it is v2.0.6.

Reopening : in gnome-2-0 branch, the first two entries in drawer are
swapped...
