Bug Description
Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix 20.04.2:
[Impact]
* When enabling two-pane view (F3, or View -> Extra Pane), and going to
View and disabling then reenabling the toolbar, all the information that
was only on one side of the toolbar is now on both sides. This leads to
some weird congestion.
* In the attached screenshots you can clearly tell something is wrong. It
doesn't seem intntional to include a bunch of buttons and whatever thrown
and cobbled together on both sides. Instead it should be kept on one.
* The upload fixes the bug by using the same functions used to generate
the toolbar/panes to check for the active window pane, and that active
window is where the toolbar will be placed.
[Test Plan]
* Open Nemo
* Enable dual-pane view. Press F3 or go to View, and select Extra Pane.
* You can play around with the different directories in different tabs if
you so wish.
* Go to View -> Main Toolbar. Disable it, then re-enable it.
* Pre-upload: All the buttons are cobbled together at the top.
[Where problems could occur]
* Dealing with the toolbars and panes can be a little bit dangerous, and
be a pain (especially with memory leakage)
* Since Nemo has lots of toolbar and panel customizations and many other
modes, considering the large amount of patches that continue to come out
for Nemo it is possible that a minor regression can open, although for
the most part it is unlikely since this patch has been around for over a
year.
[Other Info]
* This is a patch put released after the deadline for package updates
for focal (4.4.3) and technically this would bump the nemo version.
However, this is only on the 4.4x maintenance branch and not going
forward. This would be a focal-only patch.
* I'll do my research for any regressions this could've possibly caused.
