Description Kristoffer Grundström 2017-05-07 09:59:13 CEST
Description of problem: I noticed that the bottom panel in MATE does not show me if I have any programs open, but if I use the combo Ctrl + Tabulator button I see all of the opened programs. I don't use any other theme settings than the standard one.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.18.1

How reproducible: Every time I login to MATE.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install MATE.
2. Login to MATE.
3. Open a bunch of programs.
4. Look at the bottom panel. Voila! No programs seems to be opened even thou there are.

I can reproduce the same issue in a new useraccount, but as I log out from that and return to my first user account it's back to normal which means I can see any opened programs on the panel.

How odd and strange.

Assigning to the Mate maintainer. I haven't tried whether I can reproduce this issue.

Confirmed. It's pretty weird tough. I moved show desktop applet to right end of the bottom panel to fix this issue in mate-panel-1.18.2-2.mga6. Please test when it hits the repos. I shall report this behaviour to upstream.

Reassigning to all packagers collectively as the original maintainer is not available anymore (thanks for all your work Atilla!).

In MGA8 Mate 64 bit the bottom panel shows all open programs. Closing as FIXED.

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
