Hi, Well, to achieve that, we need some special syntax to allow users to skip the border bitmaps optionally in graphic mode, perhaps something like this: top_left = "null,,cyan/blue,#0x250F:,,green/blue,#0x2554" >> valign, halign: >> Now align property control the position of current widget, instead of >> its children, each have four values: >> left/top >> center >> right/bottom >> extend - Extend the widget to the full width/height of parent. >> >> margin_left, margin_right, margin_top, margin_bottom >> This properties set the inner space reserved by the panel >> >> padding_left, padding_right, padding_top, padding_bottom >> This set the outbound box of the panel >> >> attach_left, attach_right, attach_top, attach_bottom >> Stick the widget to one of the border of parent, once this is set, the >> widget is no longed controlled by the layout manager and therefore can >> overlap with other widget. >> > > This sucks.

We can use a hotkey to show/hide the bar. In this case, we definitely don't want to add the widget to the layout manger otherwise all widgets on screen would need to be resized after the show/hide operation. -- Bean gitgrub home: http://github.com/grub/grub/ my fork page: http://github.com/bean123/grub/ _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
