Description Thaddaeus Tintenfisch editbugs 2014-01-30 23:20:08 CET 
The transparency issue has been already addressed [1], but the patch seems to be incomplete. A panel with style set to 'none (use system style)' and alpha to 100 is still affected by the problem which can be triggered manually by launching another indicator after the initial panel start.

transparency fix

This small change fixed the problem for me.

Since alpha is a number between 0 and 1.0 this turns the if(...) into if(1).

I think this is the correct thing to do though, because the thing that draws the panel normal background has been disabled.

Fix transparency with alpha being 100

I don't think we even need the if check, it looks
like it just adds redundant code. Please test this
out, otherwise the other patch would be fine as well.

Eric, I've applied your patch and it works fine.
