[Bug 965953] Re: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom

2014-07-30 Thread Martin Spacek
I've had this problem for years. Currently, I'm using Xubuntu 14.04 with my panel located at the bottom edge of the screen. I see this most often with nm-applet, skype, and sometimes the sound applet. Really annoying! Thanks Lannoxx for opening a bug at GTK+'s bugzilla, and submitting the patch.

Notice that I reported this bug against Unity/GNOME 3 not against Xfce4. Unless you can prove that the bugs are coming from the same /common/ code (shared by both projects), it would be nicer if you reported a new bug against Xfce4. @Edwin, yes, I noticed. You filed this bug against

Martin, the bug as described in the bug description is not random and does not affect default shortcuts. Then perhaps the bug description should be ammended, given the slightly wider set of reports here from a variety of people. See my comment above on race conditions. Just because the original

Nuts. xfce4-keyboard-settings isn't registered in launchpad for some reason, so I can't add it as an affected package. I've added libxfce4ui instead, although it needs to have a bug opened for it upstream for anyone to be notified. I couldn't find any relevant existing ones here:

Colin, #17 and #22 imply that default shortcuts also did not work, at least at some point. Since no one here seems to know exactly where this bug is occurring, and since it seems to be random (and therefore perhpas a race condition), it's not much of a stretch to assume that the same bug manifests

Sorry for the noise, but as others have pointed out (over the years!), one workaround is using ALT+middle mouse button to resize from anywhere within a window. Just want to add that there's a key in gconf that let's you change that to using ALT+right mouse button instead:
