Created attachment 431074 [details] This is my ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml file Description of problem: For a dual monitor setup, its not possible to configure two pagers. I have a dual monitor setup with xfce on F13. I would like to have a workspace switcher on either of my screens. I have a panel at the bottom of my primary screen with a workspace switcher applet, and I have another panel on my second screen. I have both the applets set to the 2 row view. Every time I log out or restart the panel rather, the workspace switcher on my second screen defaults back to the default one row setup, even though I have both of them setup as two rows. Right clicking the faulty applet and bringing up the properties dialogue shows me, its correctly set to 2. However changing the number has no effect on it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xfce4-panel-4.6.4-1.fc13.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.add a pager on one panel, and configure as you wish. (e.g. 2 rows) 2.add another pager with the same configuration. 3.log out log back in or restart the panel from the run dialogue with "xfce4-panel -r" 4.the 2nd pager defaults back to the default 1 row setup. Actual results: on a new login, or restarting the panel it doesn't preserve the row settings for the 2nd pager Expected results: it should preserve the settings for both of the pagers. Additional info: Only thing that works is to remove the 2nd pager and add it again. When I add it, it shows up as 2 rows, but the properties dialogue still shows 1 row. I change it to 2 before closing. On logging out, its again back to the default one row. I don't know whether this is relevant or not, I didn't notice this before since I bought the second monitor recently. So when F13 was installed there was one monitor, and the 2nd monitor is a later addition.

Created attachment 431077 [details] This is my configuration for the 1st pager I know this is the 1st pager configuration since the number matches the number in my ~/.config/xfce4/panel/panels.xml file
Created attachment 431078 [details] This is my configuration for the 2nd pager

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you 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. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 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 version of Fedora. 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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
