Bug Description
Binary package hint: guake
Guake doesn't have a way to configure the window-width (which is fine), except in gconf (which is also fine; this is a minority thing to want to do). However, if you do set the window_width in gconf (/apps/
def get_final_
"""Gets the final size of the main window of guake. The height
is the window_height property, width is window_width and the
horizontal alignment is given by window_alignment.
"""
screen = self.window.
height = self.client.
width = 100
halignment = self.client.
#
Note that width is hardcoded to 100 rather than loaded from gconf.
the reason this is important is that when running Unity the Guake terminal needs to be narrower than 100% of the width of the screen because of the unity launcher on the left.

Thank you for helping with making Ubuntu and the drop-down terminal Guake better by reporting this bug. An upstream bug report already existed, which confirms this bug. I'm setting the status to Triaged, we now have to wait for the upstream developers to take a look at it.
However, I'm not so sure whether the bug will get much attention since upstream seems to have ceased most activity.
