could people stop reassigning that to gnome-panel and gnome-applets that's not the right component, the notification area is a container and it's not its fault if other applications are abusing it ** Package changed: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) = ubuntu -- Notification Area Getting Cluttered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 421575] Re: Notification Area Getting Cluttered
Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu 9.10 install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project. -nm-applet, gnome-power-manager, sound-preferences, and bluetooth are all notifications , I'm not sure what your reasoning is here! These do notify the status of the devices. -gnome-power-manager by default does not use the notification area unless the user has set it up specifically. -nm-applet , for wireless/mobile users , is very essential notification of the signal strength. -sound-preferences and bluetooth can be removed from the notification area from the startup items list, for users who use them they are notifications of the status/level of volume. -And tracker does not use the notification area in Karmic. Every other app which uses the notification area, is in the area because of the user's preference and can be removed if the user does not want to view them. For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut. The only issue here is the nm-applet which is the only app which cannot be configured. For wired users this would still indicate the status when disconnected. This would be a bug only with nm-applet. Kindly re-assign it to nm-applet. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New = Invalid ** Package changed: ubuntu = gnome-applets (Ubuntu) -- Notification Area Getting Cluttered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-applets in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi mac_v, The Gnome HIG clearly states that a program does not belong in the notification area if clicking your notification area icon does anything other than opening a window directly associated with the icon (e.g. a mail folder window for a new mail icon, or a print queue window for printer notification icon) It states that such functionality belongs with an applet. -- Notification Area Getting Cluttered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-applets in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

gnome-applets doesn't use the notification area but is a collection of applets as the name indicates ** Package changed: gnome-applets (Ubuntu) = ubuntu -- Notification Area Getting Cluttered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-applets in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It might be more than a paper cut as it affects many packages, and could involve a lot of work depending on how each package is handling the notification area. ** Also affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Notification Area Getting Cluttered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
