Contrary to the above bug; I had problems with this behavior. With the new sound menu changes, I wanted to quit Banshee while it was running(playing) and there is no way to quit Banshee! The "Quit" menu item has been changed to a "Close" I was left wondering what to do, and then remembered this thread, else I would have been completely lost.. :s So now to Quit I have to first Pause and then choose to Quit/Close the app. Which was just a simpler single action with a Quit menu item. Now we have the same close button doing two actions. If I was a new user, once I noticed that Close button minimizes Banshee to the sound menu, how would I realize that very same button would be a quit action only when I pause the player? -- Cheers, Vish _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
