I used to have eight desktops as can be seen in the picture. However, when starting an application, the desktop switcher completely disappears. In Lubuntu 13.04 and earlier the desktop switcher was permanently visible. Does anyone know how I can achieve having the desktop switcher permantly visible in Lubuntu 13.10 as well? Best regards, Wilbert <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> Wilbert: I have seen something similar with my Lubuntu 13.10 system. Any customization I have done with my system is totally by GUI means. The one I know of, is that I made the panel a bit higher than normal (32 pixels). I don't use command-line means of customization, because in my experience, I forget how to do it, so it doesn't get done on the next release. Normally, the two desktops I have appear in the task-bar (panel) switcher, and work without any problems. But sometimes, one (or both of them) get covered by the taskbar background. I recognized it because I have configured my panel to be a bit larger (in the vertical dimension) than the default, and the panel background that obscures it doesn't go all the way to the bottom (it seems to assume a normal-height panel). I don't know what triggers the problem. It just occasionally 'happens'. I can make it go away by clicking on any desktop panel entries that are obscured. <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- Sincerely, Aere</pre> </body> </html>
