Now that I have the patch implemented in 11.04 Natty, I find the following: Indicator Applet Application Menu is also affected by the patch:
For the Ambiance and Radiance themes, this is problematic since the patch removes the spaces between the text, drastically reducing readability. For other themes, where the patch only represents an improvement for Indicator Applet and not a fix, the portion of the space/gap that is NOT eliminated is necessary to retain good readability for Indicator Applet Application Menu. This demonstrates that the true nature of the bug is that Indicator Applet is using a padding/spacing/gap methodology that is inappropriate for Indicator Applet, but is appropriate for Indicator Applet Application Menu. Hopefully this will clarify the fact that the bug is NOT with the themes, but with the Indicator Applet, and maybe if we're lucky, the bug will finally get assigned to somebody who is developing Indicator Applet. Now if I can just manage to use one or less items in Notification Area, I will have something I can live with in the meantime. ____________________ Currently running: Ubuntu 11.04 Natty on Dell Inspiron 1420n, Franken-HP media center, Samsung Q1 UMPC. http://cyrusct.tk/linux.shtml http://cyrusct.tk/ubuntu.shtml -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527267 Title: Application Indicators too wide -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
