Summary:                    Panel doesn't stay centered
Description: 
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!
