I don't see what the problem is. Are you reporting a bug in AWN or gnome-panel? ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New = Incomplete -- If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I realised that Windows has it pretty much the same way but I have never noticed this problem there. I checked and yes, they do it better. ** Attachment added: xp.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17598025/xp.png -- If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Absolutely not AWN but I'm not sure what is responsible. Probably gnome- panel yes? -- If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 269934] Re: If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish
Yes, I'll mark as gnome-panel. I see what you mean partially, as the application icons have a sort of fade to them which makes it harder to spot them quickly. However in general once you get used to a something you prefer more such as AWN, it is going to be harder going back. Have you tried enabling compositing in metacity? ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = gnome-panel Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Summary changed: - If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish + application icons are faded and hard to distinguish ** Description changed: - I was forced to stop using AWN because of a bug when I have - compositioning enabled.
