Bug Description

I am reading the Ubuntu Manual v. 788 (as part of the "Show us ya bugs" initiative), and in Chapter 2, on p. 33, I believe I have discovered an incorrect information bug. The Manual states, "Use the Orientation drop-down box to select where you want the panel to be located, and underneath this you can set the desired width (in pixels). Note that the smallest width allowed is 20 pixels." However, the smallest the panel can go is actually 19 pixels.

On my computer the smallest allowed width is 21. Can anyone else confirm this or is it just me.

19 pixels Edit (44.3 KiB, image/png)

It still has 19 as the minimum for me.... I couldn't say what it is. On my computer and my sisters' (with Ambiance), the minimum is 19, and on my Dad's (with the same Ambiance theme), the minimum is 21.

Perhaps the best solution is simply to not mention the minimum - the user will figure out that xx pixels is the least it will go for him/her.

@Zachary

I agree. Best not to put a minimum in.
