weird workplace switcher bug

[tiggsy]

OK. As you can see from the screenshot, I keep my workplace switcher in a panel on the right hand side of the screen, to reduce muscle strain.

As you can also see, I seem to have 2 switchers, but I've found that if I delete the extra one, next time I boot up, there's no switcher there at all, so I have settled for 2.

That's wierdness number one.

The other one is quite plain: the lower switcher is stretching (it used to be the upper one, but they seem to have swapped habits), and it gets bigger all the time. I actually have 6 workspaces, though I generally only use 3 or 4. The others are spare, so I can quickly pick stuff up off the desktop and still keep my main window open at what I'm doing.

Any idea how to fix this before it completely takes over the rh panel?

I'm using Lucid.

They've swapped round again. Yesterday I had 2 workplace switchers of the normal size, now today, the top one is about 6 times the normal height...
