It doesn't change appearance, it pops up (like the combo boxes do, for example). > So why do people like this Bacon Volume widget? Am I missing something? Did you try it? It's small, shows the volume status in the blink of an eye, allows changing the volume in one-click, handles scroll events, and has a11y support. I like it, obviously, and a number of other programs seem to as well. -- Bastien Nocera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
