Look, I'm sorry...yesterday I had my panel scramble BIG right at a bad time as I was doing a demo and I pretty much blew up. Three years of wrangling with this just...added up. And as I'd assumed (correctly), there was already a full bug report. The real solution is basically a small database, a set of entries showing where stuff goes. The "lock to panel" thing was likely an attempted hack related to this issue (at least in part) and it hasn't worked. _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list Usability@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
