Screenshot of the error

As soon as I try to add the places plugin to the panel, I get an error message saying "Plug-in Places unexpectedly left the panel, do you want to restart it?". No matter what I do, it is not added and does not work.

I am using version 1.8.0-0ubuntu1~19.04 from the staging PPA (https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/staging).

The rest of the error message is in the screenshot.

Please, on a terminal run the following: xfce4-panel -q; xfce4-panel
Now try to add the plugin, does any error message comes up on terminal?

No padding on places icon

Oh sorry I meant to write a message first.

The problem is solves, thank you! The plugin was added fine and works well. Only thing is that the places icon doesn't seem to have padding. That might be related to my icon theme though.

Looks good here, try another theme and icon theme, I'm using Greybird + Moka.
Also try to change the panel width.

Will do, thanks. Shall I set this to RESOLVED: INVALID, or RESOLVED: FIXED?
Comment 6 Andre Miranda editbugs 2019-05-29 18:51:50 CEST
Did it work?
We only change the status when it's fixed or we find out it's not really a bug.
Comment 7 guushoekman 2019-05-29 18:56:50 CEST
Your suggestion to run xfce4-panel -q; xfce4-panel made it work fine again. Don't think that was a bug.

As for the padding, it works fine on Greybird regardless of the icon theme so it must be something related to do with the Arc theme.

Ok then, closing.
