Description David Le Sage 2011-03-07 06:49:37 UTC
Created attachment 482609 [details]
Activity Journal app name appears in GNOME 3 System Tray but you cannot click on it without an icon.

Description of problem:
If the user chooses to select "Show icon in system tray", the name Activity Journal, appears in that area but no icon.  

Unfortunately in GNOME 3, you cannot click on the name. You can only click on the icon to access functionality or switch to that application, so it needs to be there.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-activity-journal-0.6.0-2.fc15.noarch

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In the Activity Journal, click on Preferences->Configuration->Show icon in system tray.

  
Actual results:
Name of app. appears in system tray but its icon does not.  As a result, there is nothing to click on.

Expected results:
An icon to click on in order to bring the application to the forefront and to right-click on to bring up a context menu of options.

It works fine in gnome 2.x. Could it be a bug in the systray implementation in gnome-shell?

Hello Mads,


Yes I am running it under gnome-shell. A couple of other apps like GNote have the same issue.  Maybe this bug should be reassigned to the gnome-shell team...  I will let you do that if you think it needs to be.


Thanks for looking into this,

David

Reassigning to gnome-shell.

If you look carefully, you can see the icon is getting sized to 1 pixel by 1 pixel.
