2014-04-12 21:14:02 Wybo Dekker description The configuration window says: "Please restart the panel for visibility changes to take effect." It took me a long time to find out how to restart the panel; I simply logged out and in again. Why not make the message: "Run xfce4-panel -r for visibility changes to take effect." Or even better: provide a button for that.

However, it is unclear for new users how to do this. Hence, it would be most helpful if either it notes explicitly something like: "Please restart the panel via xfce4-panel -r for visibility changes to take effect." or provide a button that would do this. WORKAROUND: Log out and back in, or execute at a terminal: xfce4-panel -r ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xfce4-panel 4.11.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-23.45-generic 3.13.8 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-23-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Fri Apr 11 10:32:14 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-03-26 (15 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Beta amd64 (20140325.1) SourcePackage: xfce4-panel UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
