Description
A fix is being investigated for this, but for the moment if the window list is overflowing in wayland with mate-panel from recent git master, the WORKAROUND is to put the show desktop applet anywhere in the panel. I will have a fix for this as soon as I can folks!
Expected behavior:
Window list buttons in a wayland panel never overflow and push other applets off the end of the panel regardless of what other applets are in the panel
Actual behavior:
If the Show Desktop applet is in the panel, the window list works normally. If the Show Desktop applet is NOT in the panel however, the window list wayland backed (used for both applets) somehow cannot get the panel available space and the buttons are never shrunk, thus quickly overflowing the window list
MATE general version:
1.28 with all available 1.29 updates
To Duplicate:
1: Set up a mate-wayland session, using any 1.29 version of mate-panel supporting the show desktop applet. This commit was dated Sep 20
The problem probably came from here, as both applets re-use the same backend code but should spawn two instances.
2: Put the window list in the panel if it is not already there
3: Do NOT put the show desktop applet in the panel-the window list will overflow
4: Put the show desktop applet in the panel, restart the panel if necessary. The window list now will work properly
