Description Michael Orlitzky 2011-04-29 04:10:03 CEST
Originally discussed on the mailing list:

  http://foo-projects.org/pipermail/xfce/2011-April/028605.html

I'm attaching a patch that adds a checkbox to the tweaks/placement dialog. Enabling it switches on the patch that Olivier posted to the mailing list.

(Disclaimer: most of what I changed was cargo-cult copying. It seems to work, though.)

Would you be willing to accept bribes to include something like this? =)

I've been running the patch on three different machines for a while now, and would claim that it's stable. Thing is, since I patch the user interface pre-autogen, it's much more difficult to maintain the patch on top of the Gentoo
package.
