Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I'm using gnome-panel 2.30.2-1ubuntu3.

When clicking on the clock applet positioned on a panel with bottom orientation, the time/weather/calendar window shows up as if the clock applet is in a top panel.

The expected behaviour would be to show up on the bottom of the screen, near the clock applet.

I've included a screenshot showing the bug.

Thanks for the report. Yes, gnome-panel clock applet doesn't work that well when having it in a bottom panel, the upstream bug tracking that is https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531850 ; linking the report, thanks in advance.

This looks like a duplicate of #631664 and has nothing to do with gnome-bugs #531850.

This is a problem with Compiz.
