Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

In the clock, you can choose to show weather and time for various locations.
But I cannot reorder those locations.

for instance, I might have:

Kunming
Peterborough
Ottawa

But I'd rather have them in the order:

Peterborough
Ottawa
Kunming

I am using hardy heron 8.04, prerelease.

You can work around this issue by:

  gconf-editor /apps/panel/applets/

and find the applet settings for your clock, mine was in

  /apps/panel/applets/clock_screen0/prefs

double click the "cities" entry. Now you can reorder the locations by using the "Up" and "Down" buttons.

You may need to restart gnome for changes to take effect
