When I use it in ways that seem to be not quite what the author expects, I kept hitting rough edges. One noticeable example for me was putting it on a right-hand panel and discovering that the label is back-to-front compared with the standard menu and the clock.
It is however a lot nicer to navigate for odd panel locations, the standard menu is a bit of a dog when it is on a right-hand panel since the submenus are forced to the left and the arrow keys end up backwards. - Callum _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
