Thanks m0sia! There is indeed still a fair bit of wasted space around each icon, but it's much better than before. (I'm using the Ambiance theme with Human controls and Humanity icons.) I suppose that's the best that can be done with a menu widget in gtk. Perhaps a custom widget really should be written up for this kind of a use case. But until then, can anyone offer up a good reason why this tiny patch still hasn't been accepted?
Also, I discovered that the volume icon can indeed be removed without having to ditch the whole indicator-applet. You can simply uninstall the volume indicator: sudo aptitude purge indicator-volume Same can be done for the message indicator: sudo aptitude purge indicator-messages -- Application Indicators too wide https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527267 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
