When adding a button to the panel, it has to be recentered in Panel Settings.
It also goes off-centre when quitting certain Windows games such as Red Alert.
This could be fixed if it were modified to always stay centered. I've read
that a new positioning scheme will be used in 4.2 but I wasn't sure if that
would include this so I just thought I'd mention it.

Oh crap, sorry, I actually just tried adding a button and it does stay centered
now. It didn't used to. But it still goes off-centre when quitting certain
games so the bug still applies.

I presume the game changes the window resolution or something? That's the only
thing I can think of that would cause the panel to be repositioned.

This should be fixed in 4.1.x.

Yeah it does. It doesn't happen in most games but I had a problem with certain
games in WineX. Previously the resolution wouldn't go back to normal and
trying to change it manually wouldn't do a thing but we found out that the
xrandr could fix it so I just added that to the end of the game scripts. Thanks
a lot!
