Don: could you give me the exact itemized steps you use to make this happen. I can't get it to anything remotely like what I think you're saying. Thanks O.K., it took me a while to get the exact sequence of events, but
here's how I can do reproduce everytime on 2 different up-to-date FC1
boxes.
- Create a new panel.
- Right click panel and adjust these properties:
Uncheck "Expand"
Check "Show hide buttons"
Check "Arrows on hide buttons"
Change Orientation to Right
-Middle click on top hide button and drag the panel to the uppermost,
rightmost corner of you desktop.
-Click the bottom hide botton. (panel should go to bottom of screen,
with only the top button showing, covering up the bottom panel)
-Middle click and drag the panel left so that the panel changes to
just a top hide button and then drag it right back to the very bottom
corner.
-At this point, you either have a panel without a bottom button, or
you just have a top button. Quickly click the top button and voila!
FYI, I've gotten something similar in the top right corner as well, by
holding down the left mouse button on the bottom hide button when the
bottom hide button is the only thing showing.
Yes, I can reproduce this as well. If I follow the steps described below, I reproduce the problem every time. (1) The main gnome-panel is at the bottom, expanded, no autohide, no hide buttons shown. I have a few launchers on the gnome-panel at the right. (2) Right click on the bottom gnome-panel, and select New Panel. A new gnome-panel appears at the top of the desktop. (3) Right click on it to modify its properties, in this order: no expand, show hide buttons, orientation right. The new gnome-panel is now smaller and is positioned vertically in the top middle of the desktop. (4) Drag the little gnome-panel to the upper right corner of the desktop, with the middle mouse button on the upper hide button. (5) Click the bottom mouse button. The little gnome-panel is hidden, and only the top hide button is visible, on top of the big gnome-panel. The top hide button is against the bottom edge of the desktop, and *almost* against the right edge of the desktop. (6) Move the mouse pointer over the top hide button. The top hide button may disappear. If so, try approaching slowly from above, until you have the mouse over the visible top hide button. (7) Drag the top hide button against the right edge of the desktop. The little gnome-panel unhides, the bottom hide button remains hidden. The unhidden little gnome-panel covers now a bigger part of the large gnome-panel than the top hide button did before. (8) Click the top hide button. The little gnome-panel now slides up, including the bottom hide button, until it no longer covers the large gnome-panel. (9) Click the bottom hide button. The result is very similar to what we saw before. The little gnome-panel is hidden, and only the top hide button is visible, on top of the large gnome-panel. (10) Now, click the top hide button, and immediately move away the mouse pointer. The result is that the little gnome-panel is continuously unhiding and hiding. Thanks for the detailed report guys.
