. In "normal/landscape" rotation mode I have about 10 icons on a panel.
I rotate my screen through Nvidia X Server settings utility to
"portrait" mode and half the icons on the left side of panel get hidden
behind "App..s Places System" menu. When I hover over the menu and click
on it, the hidden icon's app still launches instead of opening the menu.
If I click on the leftmost part of "Applications", that menu shows up
and while so I can access "Places" and "System" menu items only by using
my keyboard arrows. Don't know if problem is X Server, Nvidia driver or
GNOME.
In Windows when you put enough items on the panel it grows vertifcally
and the items wrap around to a "second line". Does Ubuntu do the same
and I just don't know how to set it up to do it?
