Thanks, I can confirm that all the windows I posted screenshots of above now have maximizers in Quantal. The package downloading window (which I only mentioned) also had one, but there was one still missing it: the 'Applying Changes' window. That one also sometimes gets quite a bit of content with the 'Details' pseudo terminal. I didn't post a screenshot of it above, I'll do so now below with Synaptic 0.75.12build1 running in a VM.
Also, I did notice that the maximizers were missing from all of the fixed windows too when running Gnome Classic (No Effects). But I guess that's going the way of the dinosaurs anyway so it probably doesn't matter. With Gnome Classic (without "No Effects") the maximizers were there, as with LXDE and Xfce. (Non-fallback Gnome 3 was misbehaving too much to be able to tell either way.) ** Attachment added: "Synaptic 0.75.12build1's 'Applying Changes' window in Ubuntu 12.10" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/941481/+attachment/3431522/+files/quantal_applying.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/941481 Title: Arbitrary windows non-maximizable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/941481/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
