Bug ID: 15520
Summary: Let the panel control the orientation not the plugins
Classification: Xfce Core
Product: Xfce4-panel
Version: 4.13.5
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Medium
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: Panel 4.14
It might not be a good idea to have a setting called something like "Invert
buttons orientation" in each plugin like Action Buttons to choose if what the
plugins shows in the panel should be horizontal or vertical.
This makes it harder to change the panel preferences.
Suppose i have the panel set up nicely in horizontal mode but now i want to
change to deskbar/vertical.
But if i do that i might have to go into the plugins that have such a setting a
toggle it to be able to see the plugin correctly.
And then if i switch the panel back to horizontal again i would have to go into
the plugin settings again.
I would think it smart to select the panel mode (horizontal/vertical/deskbar)
and then the plugins have to adapt to what ever orientation/space they are
given by the panel.
So if the panel is only wide enough for 3 buttons and the plugin wants to show
6 well then wrap it/use two rows for the plugin instead of cutting half of it
off.
