Here is another video of the bug, present in Ubuntu 9.10/gnome 2.28.1. Worth noting: the first drawer expansion immediately after creating a new drawer has no delay.

I worked around the drawer opening delay by hardcoding the animation time to 0 in gnome-panel sources. I don't think this can be considered a proper fix, but at least it makes drawers usable again.

For anyone who still cares, I've come across something of a workaround. As was said above, if you disable animations through gconf-editor, the drawer shows up, just in the wrong place.

Re: [Bug 108951] Re: Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness
I partially agree. This drawer delay has been around FOREVER and no movement whatsoever has been made on it. It seems as if the bug is well documented with various cases where the behavior does and does not appear (seems to be tied to compiz as the drawers behave as expected when compiz is turned off). As drawers are used by a lot of people and compiz as well, it affects all those people. A seemingly small fix would affect a lot of people. This bug has been open for a long time and gets a lot of comments. There is interest here.

I just started using a drawer to save some space in an attempt to go from two panels to just one at the bottom. I'm getting the same behavior. I have always had compiz disabled. I read a recommendation to put a file in the home directory that sets the panel_delay to zero, but that only changes the speed of the drawer after the initial delay. Since it also has the bad side effect of expanding all of the menus even when I'm just moving my pointer past them to get to another menu item, I got rid of that file. I'm experiencing the same thing as Jordan Erickson in that the very first time after a reboot or log out/in, the drawer expands perfectly, without any delay.

[Bug 108951] Re: Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness
Yes, this is a particularly irksome bug. One clue: 1. Add the System Monitor applet to your panel and configure it to display disk usage in a graph. 2. Reboot (to clear out disk cache) 3. Make sure disk usage is low (wait for bootup to settle down, have a lot of memory :-) 4. Click on a Drawer and a distinct spike is seen in the Disk graph After several clicks on the same Drawer you won't see the bump since the icon is cached by (guessing) the disk cache, file sytem driver or OS or ??? Anyway, try that and see if you get the same results. I could be imagining it...

[Bug 108951] Re: Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness
I can confirm that the delay aspect of this drawer bug still is affecting Hardy Heron. I have Normal Visual Effects checked (compiz- fusion) under the Appearance Preferences. when I click on a drawer applet that I have added to the gnome-panel, there is a slight pause before the drawer extends and then a slight pause before all the icons are painted into the open drawer. This behavior DOES NOT happen with the gnome-menus (Applications, Places, System). They appear near instantaneously. It is a very annoying bug as I make heavy use of drawers in order to clean up my screen real estate. -- Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 108951] Re: Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness
(disclaimer: new to Linux) Same for Hardy Alpha 5 (creating new drawer, opens fine the first time, opening the second time = 1 sec delay before fully expand)-- makes drawers unusable =( Playing around in gconf-editor... unchecking enable_animations gets rid of the delay, but then the drawer always pops up in the very upper-left corner of the screen (instead of directly under the drawer icon) (see screenshot). Playing around with all the x/y variables doesn't seem to move it at all. (under /apps/panel/toplevels or /objects). ?? Upon rechecking enable_animation, the drawer disappears altogether (to clarify, the drawer icon remains on the main panel but the mini-panel doesn't appear anymore)... won't open no matter how much you click it (that's be the drawer with the X in the screenshot). Great... (I know this doesn't belong in a bug report, but is there any way to more easily figure out what key corresponds to what menu item in gconf- editor? It's kind of trial-error right now... thanks.) ** Attachment added: drawer.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13362766/drawer.png -- Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

qw1, the wrong position of the drawer's panel is another bug which I think is discussed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/140992 Nevertheless it is perhaps useful to have a workaround for the drawer- delay-bug, if the wrong-position-bug gets fixed so that disabling animations can be used for drawer-panels. -- Gnome drawer applet delays and unresponsiveness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

No, it is not, at least from the user perspective they are totally unrelated. This one only affects drawers, and happens only when using compiz (up to and including Hardy A3, per the above report).

Hi, I made some more testing. The three-click-to-open and the slowness when opening happens when using Beryl as window manager. When using Metacity all is good. So this looks like a Beryl interaction problem. Again, reproducible 100% of the time in different machines. Should I open a bug against Beryl?

Hi, I could reliable reproduce this in my office laptop. It also has a Feisty fresh install, same as my desktop. Steps to reproduce: - right click in the top panel, select add to panel, add a drawer. - right click in the drawer, select add to drawer, select Custom Application Launcher, then: - select Type = File - click Browse; go to your home folder and select a .txt file; put a name on the launcher and click close In my case the file location looks like: file:///media/sda6/User/Program%20Data/My.Notes.txt - click on the drawer in the panel: Nothing happens! - click again on the drawer in the panel: Nothing happens! - click a third time: now the drawer open a bit but still does not show the contents. Two or 3 seconds later, it opens itself and shows the contents.
