Support for bottom task bars #4
Comments
@hexion Thanks for the heads-up. However, we need more information about the environment (operating system, version) and the app (version, installation) for an assessment of the issue. Please add your "steps to reproduce". Cheers! |
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04, with the gnome-flashback desktop environment. I'm not sure right now if the menu bar is set to bottom by default, it might be at the top. To change it, press down Super+Alt+Right click on the menu bar, a menu will appear, select Properties. Then there is an option to change the layout. As for reproducible steps, simply run the application on a system with a menu bar positioned at the bottom, and click on the app menu icon. The window with the sliding bar will appear at the top of the screen, far from the menu icon. Thanks for looking into it. |
Clicking on the icon will now cause a stack trace: Uncaught Exception: Hope that helps |
Same stack trace upon click with version 2.8.8: Uncaught Exception: Btw, I noticed this other enhancement request: IMHO, that would indirectly solve this issue. Sure, the app wouldn't automatically detect bottom task bars, but the user could just place it wherever he likes and as long as the window is drawn at the newly saved location, it would all be fine. |
No problem. With 2.9.0 there are no crashes. The popup window now has moved a bit to the left. It now shows up at the right top of the screen with an offset of about 200px to the left. This may help. There is a command that can retrieve certain values for gnome-panel so, in environments that use it, will tell you where it is in the screen. $ dconf read /org/gnome/gnome-panel/layout/toplevels/top-panel/orientation The last 2 values are in pixels. |
Thanks for your reports. As the issue has been resolved, i'm closing this issue. Please feel free to open a new issue if the issue should reoccur. Cheers, |
The desktop dimmer window is always drawn in the upper right corner. This fits top menu bars but not menu bars placed at the bottom of the screen.
It is quite inconvenient to click on the menu icon and then go all the way up to move the bar. Support for bottom menu bars (via automatic detection if possible, or else through a configurable option) would be great.
