If Unity make this irrelevant, then the release of 11.04 should fix this. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73343 Title: Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 73343] Re: Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets
This is still a problem in 10.10 Desktop. It is irrelevant in Netbook Edition because of Unity.

Could someone familiar with this bug please confirm whether or not this is still an issue with the new panel introduced in Lucid?

[Bug 73343] Re: Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets
Today, a friend just called me because his task bar was gone. He was lost and did not know how to get it back. If we had the panel locked by default, users would not be able to remove accidentally things from the gnome panel. If they don't know how to use applets, it should be locked to avoid wrong manipulations. Losing applets like gnome main menu or task bar is an important issue, even if it is a wrong manipulation of the user. We have found an easy way to solve it. There is already a gconf key for that.

If it's an usability bug and is easy to fix, then perhaps it could be reported as papercut, no? -- Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73343 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 73343] Re: Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets
It seems to be easy to solve : There is a gconf key to do lock / unlock all applets : "/apps/panel/global/locked_down". We just need a menu item in the gnome-panel context menu that enable / disable this boolean key. If some people like the possibility to lock individual panel objects, another key in gconf could enable or disable the global lock. -- Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73343 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 73343] Re: Gnome-panel should have a global lock for applets
I agree gnome panel will be very easier to use with that possibility. There is an option in the program ubuntu-tweak (screen Desktop -> GNOME) to lock or unlock panels (exactly the desired behaviour).
