Title:
system monitor drop-down menu hiding other drop-down menus
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I added a System Monitor "applet" (or whatever it's called...) to the
Unity main menu bar (don't know its proper name either). When clicked,
it shows a drop-down menu with various statistics, which is as it
should be.
However, it shares the menu bar with other items, e.g. the user
switcher and the power off button. When those are clicked, they show
their own drop-down menus, but since I added the system monitor
applet, for some reason the applet's drop-down menu appears instead of
e.g. the user switcher menu, in effect preventing user switching or
even suspending the machine from the menu.
The workaround is to use keyboard shortcuts to switch to a different
user (<Ctrl>-<Alt>-F7/F8/F9) or suspend the machine.
The problem is illustrated with the attached screenshot:
http://www.screenshots.cc/show/67254/675ja
The screenshot did not capture the mouse pointer, but the mouse was in
the upper right corner, not the upper left where the system monitor
is.
It might be worth pointing out that the problem does not occur with
all icons in the menu bar, e.g. the calendar works fine.
