Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 112759
Panel does not persist ordering of components on panel
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:34 EST
Description of problem: In my setup the panel is not expanded and does not have the hide buttons. On subsequent reboots when I login the components that I previously ordered on the panel are now in a different order. Commonly the left two components (window list and workspace list) are switched around. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 1 (no erratas) How reproducible: Follow steps Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a panel that is not expanded 2. Add components to the panel 3. Reboot several times and it should re-occur Actual results: Order of components differ. Expected results: Components order should be preserved Additional info:
Does this issue still persist or was it fixed by doing upgrades?
Try right-click on the icon, and select lock. Does this help?
Peter: I can't reproduce this here with Fedora Core 1 and I was pretty sure it had been fixed. Could you detail the exact steps you are using to reproduce this e.g.: 1. Create a panel, make it not expand 2. Add a terminal launcher, then a battery applet ... 3. Swap the position of the launcher and batter applet 4. Re-start the panel If you just do "killall gnome-panel" instead of rebooting, it should have the same effect wrt reproducing the bug. Thanks
Also reported upstream by someone else: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122513
Sorry we have been in release cycle for past couple months, I havent had time to look at this at all. I will get to it as soon as we are done with release.
Resolving UPSTREAM. Its fixed upstream now - we'll pull the fix in with 2.6.1. Thanks :)
