Bug Description
Binary package hint: alltray
I like to have my window "close button" in the upper-left corner of my windows, ala Mac OS.
Alltray seems to assume that the "close button" is always going to be located in the upper-right corner of the window.
When I click on the close button, the app closes. But when I click on the button that is in the upper-right corner of the window, the app minimizes to the notification area.
The default window title/button order for Ubuntu is:
(Top Left -- middle -- Top Right)
menu -- Title -- minimize;
MY window title/button layout is:
(Top Left -- middle -- Top Right)
close;menu -- Title -- minimize;maximize
Thus, when I click on the maximize button, the window actually minimizes to notification area.
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Configure window buttons. For example, with gconf-editor, change
/apps/metacity/
to
"close,
2) "Alltray" an application
3) Click on upper-right window button

Hrm, looking at this, there have been changes made in releases up to Jaunty. Is this still an issue with the latest release of AllTray contained in the latest release of Ubuntu (9.04)?

Yes, in Ubuntu 9.04, this bug is present as described. I haven't tried it in Ubunut 9.10 yet.

This is getting marked "confirmed", and targeted to 0.7.5dev, because this bug fix will be part of the close-to-tray support in AllTray's current development releases.

New AllTray is not affected by this problem. Old AllTray does make these assumptions and while patches will be accepted to fix them (perhaps from someone for Ubuntu?), new AllTray is quickly approaching globally usable and therefore this bug is considered "fix committed' in upstream AllTray.

Reproducible in Hardy with the latest available Alltray package and the Metacity window manager under GNOME. Does not occur, however, when Compiz is the window manager.
