Description Matthew Miller 2007-09-27 20:10:08 UTC
The power bars drawn by nm-applet to indicate wireless connection strength are
blurry and look unprofessional when used in a notification area larger than 16
pixels tall. Presumably, they're only drawn tiny and scaled up.

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 22:53:13 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 5 David Juran 2009-07-06 16:55:46 UTC
Still in NetworkManager-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.i586

Comment 6 Rodd Clarkson 2009-08-19 23:48:01 UTC
I'm still seeing this in NetworkManager-0.7.1-8.git20090708.fc11.x86_64
however, I think I saw improvements in f12

Comment 7 Dan Williams 2009-11-13 23:41:48 UTC
There actually aren't really any improvements in F12 :)  The applet has only 22x22 bitmap icons, and only some of those are overridden by scalable SVG icons in various themes.  We need to redo the icon set to get scalable SVG.

Comment 8 Rodd Clarkson 2010-07-17 00:45:36 UTC
The icon looks all right in f13 with the panel at 24pixels, but make the panel larger and it still looks yuck.

Someone should upgrade this to f13.

I might be willing to try and address this (and might have the graphics skills) but need some direction on where to look for examples of what you need to create the svg image(s).

This may be read as an offer to help.

Comment 9 Matthew Miller 2010-07-19 18:08:54 UTC
Moving to current Rawhide.

Comment 10 Bug Zapper 2010-07-30 10:30:19 UTC

Comment 11 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 21:50:55 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that

Comment 12 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 20:01:06 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 14 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-18 11:56:46 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
