Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
Using gnome-panel from ubuntu hardy (2.21.91), the workspace switcher has big
tooltips explaining its use.
I don't think it's a good idea:
- tooltips should stay small, these ones are big.
- they should not be a substitute to the user manual.
- the one for the first workspace area hides almost completely the workspace
switcher.
- icons are distracting.

Thanks for your report. The tooltips in 2.21.91 don't look new to me; they're the same ones used in the version in Ubuntu 7.10. Which are the icons you're referring to?
