Created attachment 206603 [details, diff]
Updated stickynotes.glade
After passing the shipped stickynotes.glade file straight through glade 3.4.5, this is the result.
Since the distributed tar doesn't seem to contain this file, it's only instructive to end-users. :-)

Updated stickynotes.ui restores function in applet
... and this is the result of passing the updated glade file (above) through gtk-builder-convert.
Patching this file into the tar distribution should restore applet functionality.
What do upstream devs think about that ?

The patch seems to also fix the preferences dialog on my systems. Please ask on upstream before conclude any stuff (In reply to comment #7) > Please ask on upstream before conclude any stuff ? I don't understand what you mean. I looked in upstream's bugzilla and git repositories and there's no mention of this behavior. Also, upstream probably doesn't care since they've progressed to 2.28 which removes the need to run glade interface descriptions through gtk-builder-convert (glade 3.6 can read/write the XML directly), so the XML file they have in git has been updated (and if you take their released 2.28 XML file and drop it in here, then it also fixes the problems described in this bug). There are many different branches on their repository on upstream, there is also a branch for gnome-applets-2.26 (with a tags in this branch) When I said "ask on upstream" I meant : - Please open a new bug on upstream (if it does not exist yet) - Please attach your patch to this bug as proposal - Then paste the URL here => that's very important to ask upstream confirmation because they are guys who wrote this soft, so necessarily they know it better than us :) Btw, the lastest release is may be 2.28.0 but upstream developers still maintain the previous release (2.26 in this case) at least for bugfixes ;) They don't maintain 2.26 anymore, 2.28 is the newstable. I see no point in bothering upstream about this if it's fixed in 2.28 very annoying bug... tnx works for me too (just applied the stickynotes.ui patch) The stickynotes-ui.patch solves the issue for me (amd64). Thanks Robert. Please include the patch in the next revision since this issue completely renders stickynotes useless. (In reply to comment #12) Note that you can delete a sticky note if you first erase its content :) *** Bug 307145 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Better wait for 2.28 stabilization since: 1. Patches to backport would change a lot upstream code and, then, I think that would be safer to keep close to upstream and, then, simply stable 2.28 version as it fixes the issue. 2. Gnome 2.28 shouldn't take too long (we are working on it) Sorry a lot for the long delay, but Gnome team is a bit overworked Thanks for reporting 2.28 is already going stable fixing this issue |
