"Icon box" always displays icons horizontally, even when the panel is vertical. This makes "Icon box" unusable on a vertical panel. Steps to reproduce: * have "Icon box" on a panel * make the panel vertical * have more than one application open * only one icon will be visible & accessible on the panel (or two at most - aligned in a row - if one makes the vertical panel really wide) Expected behaviour: on a vertical panel, the icons should be aligned in a column (as opposed to a row on a horizontal panel) (I report from ubuntu jaunty, using 4.6.0; I have tested xfce also in Debian Lenny, which uses 4.4.2.1 and there the icon box was displayed correctly - vertically on a vertical panel)
I've the same problem. Gtk 2.16 seems to be the cause. Downgrading tot 2.14.7 solved the problem for me.

Move bug to Window Buttons; the merge of tasklist and iconbox.
