Dash interface top bar doesn't fit in 800x480 screens

[Christopher Neville-Smith]

Binary package hint: unity

Okay, so this new Dash interface for applications may be all funky and groovy for netbooks with 1024x640 screens, but on 800x480 screens you get this (see screenshot). I can select Accessories, Games or Internet, but the other options go off the right-hand side of the screen. The arrows at the left don't seem to do anything at all.

Any change of a fix?

Thanks for using Ubuntu and reporting this bug. On the 01, we updated unity to 0.2.46-0ubuntu4 which should fix this issue. Can you confirm?

[Christopher Neville-Smith (chris-neville-smith)]

Yes, upgraded and now all seven headers are visible. The first two only say "All App..." and "Access..", but that will do.

Thanks for the fix.

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks)]

awesome, thanks for confirming!
