Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-applets
This applet now looks a lot worse than the Karmic one, in my opinion.
Why?
The slider is too short and doesn't let you fine tune volume properly
The two options, "mute all" and "sound preferences" are not grouped together
There's a random 1px line that inexplicably runs underneath the slider box
The max volume icon doesn't have enough padding, compared to the no volume icon
Volume changes appear in the notification system - you would expect the volume
controls to have the same style
The size of the box is inconsistent with the wireless connection menu, the
messaging menu, the MeMenu, the date/time/calender and the user session menu -
all of these are longer than they are wide, but this one is wider than it is
long
The background colour for the slider looks out of place, it isn't necessary.
To be honest, this applet does nothing right except change your volume
when you move it. In fact, with this track record, I wouldn't be
surprised if moving the slider to the right actually decreased the
volume!
