ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
I installed arch via the archinstall and this is the first thing I wanted to
do, i'd say this falls within the 15 minute bug initiative. this bug forces a
person to force shutdown because nothing else is responsive (except the power
button but shutting down has a stuck process so I had to hold down the power
button. restarting works but I cant affect the panel or else i'd get stuck in
the same loop, only removing the panel works.
Semi-related (1), the arrows affecting the maximum and minimum width of the
panel are weird, both minimum arrows are pointing left and both maximum arrows
are pointing right.
Minimum arrows should point outward of the panel and maximum arrows should
point inward.
So minimum ones like this "<------ PANEL ----->" and maximum ones are like the
opposite.
Semi-related (2) the reason why I tried to use 2 spacers in the first place is
that the icons-only task manager is not perfectly centered in the panel, its
slightly to the left for example this is the normal panel in minimum size :
1. [----------]
2. [--ICON--] < ----- this should be the behavior
3. [-ICON--] < ----- this is observed result.
I dont know if its related, but Latte dock does not exhibit this issue. and i'm
back in windows atm but my linux installation is available if anything is
needed.
