Description nboric 2003-11-06 01:51:03 UTC
If there's only one row of tasks on the panel (my panel size is 26
pixels), when you open another window, or the title of the window
you're working on changes (opening another web page or another
directory in mozilla or nautilus respectively), sometimes the size of
all the items on the taskbar shrinks to the size of the smaller one of
them, and now you can't read the entire title of the other tasks.

Hope this examples clarifies the problem:

If I have only a mozilla window open, then there's one item on the
taskbar:

|Fedora Project, sponsored by Red Hat - Mozilla| free space

And now I open a terminal window, the taskbar now shows:

|Fedora Project, sponsored|test@skynet:~|free space

when it should be:

|Fedora Project, sponsored by Red Hat - Mozilla|test@skynet:~|free space

(There's certainly space fot that)

I'm using the standar preferences of fedora core, only the panel has
been resized to 26 pixels, but this also happened on redhat 9. The
tasklist is set to a minimum size of 50 and a maximum of 4096 (the
default)

I hope I made myself clear, as my English is not so good I guess.

Here's the tasklist with only one item, you can see the full title

Now you can't see the title of the first items, but there's enough space for
showing both full titles.

Looks like the problem is going to be sorted out upstream soon:
