[Bug 734192] Re: Chromium puts an ugly, unhideable icon in the GNOME Panel system tray

 

Non-monochromous is correct ("ugly"), unhideable not. Should we open a
new ticket?

Title:
  Chromium puts an ugly, unhideable icon in the GNOME Panel system tray

Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium-browser

  PROBLEM

  Upon update to the version identified as "10.0.648.127 (76697) Ubuntu
  10.10", Chromium puts its icon in the GNOME Panel system tray. This
  icon cannot be hidden, is distractingly close to the next-closest one,
  and is in full-color even if it's part of a monochrome icon theme.

  HOW TO REPRODUCE

  1. Update to the latest version of the chromium-browser package.

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

  Chromium, a first-class modern browser on the Ubuntu platform, will
  not break UI integration in such a noticeable and garish way. It will
  either use a properly-spaced, monochrome icon, or will give the option
  to hide its system tray icon. The features exposed through the system
  tray menu will be accessible through other means (Internal menu, Docky
  docklet, Unity add-on).
