Working on it, but I am not a developer.
@rilian-la-te please talk with us before work on big changes like this, to avoid to loose time with something that will be not merged
Ok, I almost done porting;) If you want, you can checkout it in https://github.com/rilian-la-te/mate-panel/tree/packed_applets_issue_183
If it will not be merged, I will save and maintain branch for some time;)
I have some suggestions about realization of this feature not like gnome-panel (with keeping current behaviour).
What about this, non-destructive way to resolve this?
Just out of interests sake is there any intent to try to fix this? I see there is another bug report on this exact same issue(https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-panel/issues/62) that is 2 years older than my report.
It would be nice if users could place applets (using gsettings?) on the left-centre-right of the panel and the applet stayed in that position. This is how I have my panel set up but if I change screens (to a larger screen) the weather/clock/calender applet moves from the centre of MATE panel to the right like the screenshot below . If there was a setting that users could just say "centre" the applet should, regardless of the screen size/resolution, stay in the centre. Currently we just drag the applet to where we want it and if we change screens (or resolutions, please see screenshot below for resolution change) it moves to the coordinates that the location corresponds to. I hope I have explained this well enough
