Well there isn't going to be a "fix my bug please" gconf key ;-) Should be fixed upstream I think last week. Changed product to Fedora Core.
For me the problem is still there. The movement goes roughly like
(vertical, right bound panel), the unwanted vertical is greater when
showing the panel:
Showing the panel (states 1 through 4):
3
| ^

2/4<-----1
Hiding the panel (states 1 through 4):
1-------2/4
| ^

Same problem here. The whole toolbar and the icons on it shake horizontally. But, a simimar problem occurs with expanded toolbar. The workspace switcher shakes horizontally. Workaround: move the workspace switcher and the window list, to insert some space. Known upstream, see: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127758 There is a workaround available. Joseph Mocker wrote: "I just changed the panel background from "None (use system theme)" to "Solid Color" and it appears to fix the problem. I just set the color to the same as the system theme and left the Style at 100% Opaque." This workaround definitely doesn't work for me, just tried it with gnome-panel-2.4.0-3 -- perhaps this only works with CVS? Hmm, maybe it's because the (jumpy) panels (left + right) are
"sitting" on top of the (also auto-hiding) bottom panel:
Hidden:
,------------------.
| TOP |
+------------------.
| |
| +---.
,---+ | R |
| L | | I |
| E | SCREEN | G |
| F | | H |
| T | | T |
`---+------------------+---´
| BOTTOM |
`------------------´
Unhidden:
,------------------.
| TOP |
+--------------+---+
+---+ | R |
| L | | I |
| E | SCREEN | G |
| F +----------+ H |
| T | BOTTOM | T |
`---+----------+---´
I can provide screen shots if necessary.
George, comment #2 : any pointer to the solution? Nils, comment #6 : I have not tried it with CVS. It should work with gnome-applets-2.4.1-1 gnome-panel-2.4.0-3 This bug may be related to bug #102629. Thanks for all the info, I think we have a fair idea of what the problem is. Lets track this upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127758 Patch submitted upstream. Repeating the link to the upstream bug report, copying from comment #5. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127758 Mark, I don't think you're on the cc of the upstream bug report. Have you checked it recently? You wanted to add the patch to the update before pushing it to final... remember? http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2004-February/msg01580.html Nils, maybe you can help to get the patch validated or rejected upstream? You reported both bugs, so you may be interested to see them solved. Bart: I'm on gnome-panel-maint.org. I won't forget, just been too busy so far this week. Re-opening this since it'll be in the update released on Monday (2004-03-01). Nils reports that Bart's patch works perfectly. Okay, a gnome-panel Fedora Core 1 Update (2.4.2-3) with a fix for this bug is now available from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/1/ *** Bug 102629 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
Description of problem: When showing an autohide panel, it seems to move a little bit orthogonally to the movement direction before and while moving. When coming to rest, it is in the correct position. E.g. a panel on the left side would move like this (B=beginning, E=end position): B E | | +-----------+ It's only about 5 pixels (too quick to count), but noticable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-panel-2.3.6.2-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make panel non-expanded, autohide 2. Make it show Actual results: See above. Expected results: Panel moves without offset Additional info: With the old GNOME version, the movement seemed more smooth (more steps while moving) and I can't find where I can turn the old behaviour back on. I tried to set GConf key /apps/panel/global/panel_animation_speed to "panel-speed-slow", but to no avail.
