http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160944 The mock up looks good, it would be well worth posting it in the upstream bug so that the developers can see it. This bug is related to bug 10820 but I'm not duping it because that is specifically about the clock, not other panel applets. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed ** Summary changed: - not a bug but a "would be nice" suggestion + transparent panel can make text unreadable due to colour ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #160944 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160944 ** Also affects: gnome-panel (upstream) via http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160944 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- transparent panel can make text unreadable due to colour https://launchpad.net/bugs/88263 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
