Hi everyone, I am glad to announce I finally have a working multipanel capable settings manager. It is not quite ready for the stable release, yet... there are a few things I need to address before I can call it good, but those are fairly minor issues.
I need to make the Applications menu something the user can add or delete from the panel... this is fairly trivial to implement, so it wont be a major effort... but it needs to be done. The indicators (a.k.a. things that go into the <Dock> element, like volume icon, network, etc...) need to toggle to not be shown on panels that don't have the Dock element... not huge, but it would be confusing otherwise, so I will need to do a little reworking to make that happen. Deleting an added panel. This is needed for obvious reasons :) Updating all the themes. This is important of course, and I may create infiles, and use variables so that all the themes will stay up to date as things change, but either way I still need to address this. xload configuration... I need to have the colors be something that can be configured eventually, as some people wont want the defaults, and will want to change the colors to match their own theme. This is minor and may not be something for the release... I need to handle more things... I need to handle the gnome power manager (if I can). I also need to handle nautilus, pcmanfm, thunar, etc.. for the desktop wallpaper. Oh, I also want to set the window manager icon for each sub-program... not sure how fltk handles this yet... but it shouldn't be much of an issue... There are a few other things I also need to tidy up, but the code is looking much cleaner and is less error prone than before... I should be able to handle as many panels as a person wants, however I have only added support for 4 currently.. I suppose I could double that just to be on the overly accommodating side. There are a few other things I want to handle overall. I want to eventually do something to watch the autostart directory and include that in (so users can follow just about any how-to to get some program to run automatically). So, if anyone tests this program out there... please update and look for bugs... I uploaded to the torios-core PPA, so a normal update will bring in the new one. -- Regards -Israel ToriOS Team -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~torios Post to : torios@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~torios More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
