Sticky Notes change position after logout/login.

[WW]

I have a Sticky Note on my desktop, and I put it in the lower right corner.
When I log out and back in, the Sticky Note has moved to the upper right corner.

Correction: After loggin back in, the Sticky Note is in the upper left corner.

The applet is not on the same place on the panel ? Do you have the problem
after every logout/login ?

[WW (wweckesser)]

The problem is not with the Sticky Note applet icon that
I have in my upper panel. The problem is with the sticky notes
themselves--the ones created when I click on the Sticky Note
icon.

The problem occurs when I reboot, but apparently not when I
just logout and back in. (In my normal use these days, I
usually only logout to turn the computer off.) I tried it
a couple more times. One time I had two notes on the desktop,
and when I rebooted, one of them had moved to the upper left
corner of the desktop, while the other stayed put. I tried
again with three notes on the desktop, and when I rebooted
and logged in again, all three had moved to the upper left
corner.

Correction: Rebooting is not necessary for the Sticky Notes to move.
Sometimes it happens when I log out and back in, without rebooting.

Do you have a crash dialog on the logout ?

There is a bug report upstream about this here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121782

Could you read it and let we know if your problem seems to be related to this one ?

[WW (wweckesser)]

The symptom of (some) notes moving to the upper left corner of the desktop
after logging out and back in sounds the same, so it could be the same bug.

I haven't seen any error messages. If they are occurring, it is too fast
for me to see.

The last time I logged out and back in, I had four notes on the desktop.
Two of them moved to the upper left corner when I logged back in.

I think this is fixed with gnome-applets 2.9.4, do you still get this issue ?

[WW (wweckesser)]

I'm running warty, which has version 2.8.1 of gnome-applets, so I can't say if
2.9.4 fixes the problem.

Someone else reported having the same problem in the forum:
   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=10737

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

right. I think that's fixed, I'm closing the bug. Feel free to reopen if you
still get the issue after the hoary release.

Using Gutsy Gibbon with Compiz enabled, this bug still occur.
I'm not sure if it's the same source, but the behaviour is as previously described :
I have three sticky notes placed in a row, when I logout/login or reboot, they are always replaced on the left of the screen, one over each other.
Can this one be reopened ?
