Yeah it's a bit dumb looking. Need a solution. Garrett's mockup had some ideas iirc. I don't think that hiding it is such a good idea. There's no way to remove it, in that case. Adding a new one looks like you've done a no-op. Additionally, we should have something there by default when you start up, so it won't be a complete surprise. I'd rather improve the default appearance, rather then hide it. jrb, yeah that sounds like the right thing to do. maybe make the background a slightly different color so that it looks like an empty tray instead of just a grippy floating along with nothing beside it? Of course, now that the applet appears properly, there's something in the panel by default now. garrett, any ideas? garrett: any thoughts here? I just thought of how we should do it: - the panel just has the tray built in - when there are no icons the tray vanishes - when there are icons it reappears - when it's visible you can move it - whenever it reappears it comes back where it was last time Needs to be done upstream though since it changes a bunch of stuff. Sounds good to me. Is this still an issue? Does it need to be fixed? Okay, moved this upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135603 |
