By time they tell me (sometimes email minutes/hours later) and then by time I check (if not immediately) sometimes they found a way (select some other area) or I explain. I think of drop-down widgets more like normally-closable programs in a tiling window manager (xmonad, etc., when arranged as tabs) and though they haven't used one (and I never learned to like those) they probably do also... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Do the users have trouble with this too? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
