Missing 'new tab' button on right and side of guake

[actionparsnip]

As stated. The yellow button on the bar at the bottom of guake to make a new tab is missing. CTRL+SHIFT+T does spawn a tab, but their used to be a button.

Looks like the new hide method of Unity pushes the window off the page, noticed this while typing a long command and the cursor went off the screen.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I had to change the width option in /usr/lib/guake.py to 96.2 on my 1280x800 screen in order to make the right border appear. (on my 1366x720 screen the value was 96.5). On my 1680x1050 monitor, everything is fine.

It is a bit annoying (when using a touchpad a scrollbar is nice as there is no mousewheel and the touchpad's emulation most often a pain in the a** )- it took me some time to find out

I'm on 12.04 x86_64

Bingo.

line 817 of /usr/lib/guake/guake.py

change from:
width = 100

to:
width = 96.2

works great here on 1280 width

Awesome work :-)

With panel size 40 and 1280x800 res you can keep it at 100 and it's ok

I am also experiencing this bug currently on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Where is this set in Quantal please, there is no guake.py file in my filesystem.
Thanks

It seems that the file structure has changed: is line 821 in /usr/guake. But now it is an overlay scrollbar that is only visible when you have more lines than visible (depending on on guakes height).

[actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666)]

I assume you mean /usr/bin/guake :)

[actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666)]

Works great, thanks again

[zarquon42 (zarquon42)]

yep, sorry - I'm very tired ;)

[actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666)]

In Raring it appears you need to edit
/usr/bin/guake line 821

Set width to 95

Works here

Is it not possible to have an autoresize option? every window using python can resize itself to the unity screen, why not this one?
