well... if it helps any: when you have a lot of applications running, the icons start to get reduced to the point of being really difficult to recognise. This would be worth a bug or, perhaps, a wishlist: make the bottom panel vertically expandable as an option. This is, in fact, very much the only thing I liked on Windows.
As for the graying out, yes, it is a feature. It just could have been less light gray, I guess. After a lot of applications, and a lot of minimising, I indeed cannot see the bloody thing. -- application icons are faded and hard to distinguish https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
