it there a way to show windows only on current workspace...? i think this is some compiz settings or somethink... i want something from this sort without applets long time before i see windows 7... i just want to disable labels :D but i've been trying with dockbarx with iconbox in xfce and all applets show windows from all workspaces :( i think compiz tells them that there is only 1 desktop and compiz just add viewports... if not wrong.

Anyone got a 64-bit .deb of this?

Nice work. Just a suggestion: I've changed the relief style of the buttons to "none", looks and fits much better. http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/9452/taskdockreliefnone.png is a scrot of it.

It's great (I can now make my ubuntu look like win7 :) ) But I miss 2 features: 1. Switching windows using mouse wheel 2. Showing windows only from one desktop

micheledm

Seconded

It would be nice to have notifications on app the icons....so we can replace traycon with one more-logical system!

I'm on Ubuntu 8.10 and the dependencies of this package are not present... this is my output from terminal:

fra@fra-notebook:~/Scrivania/taskdock-0.0.1$ sudo apt-get install libpanel
libpanel-applet2          libpanel-applet2-doc      libpanelappletmm-2.6-1
libpanel-applet2-0        libpanel-applet2-ruby     libpanelappletmm-2.6-1c2
libpanel-applet2-dev      libpanel-applet2-ruby1.8  libpanelappletmm-2.6-dev
fra@fra-notebook:~/Scrivania/taskdock-0.0.1$ sudo apt-get install libwnck
libwnck-1        libwnck2.20-cil  libwnck-dev      
libwnck22        libwnck-common
so when I compile it give me error because it don't find dependencies... :(

Ok at the end I understand what to install, give this from terminal: Quote:

sudo apt-get install libpanel-applet2-dev libpanel-applet2-0 libwnck-dev libwnck-common
then compile with Quote:
make sudo make install
in the directory of the sources...

I installed these: sudo apt-get install libpanelapplettmm-2.6-1c2 sudo apt-get install libpanelapplettmm-2.6-dev sudo apt-get install libwnck22 sudo apt-get install libwnck-dev sudo apt-get install libwnck-common and it works form me

Too many T's in libpanelappletmm-2.6-1c2 and libpanelappletmm-2.6-dev. And you can do this all on one line... sudo apt-get -y --force-yes install libpanelappletmm-2.6-1c2 libpanelappletmm-2.6-dev libwnck22 libwnck-dev libwnck-common The "-y --force-yes" is for all the dependencies... There are a ton if you don't already have a lot of -dev packages installed.

Hi, the size of icons is the bigger when you have a size panel of 37, well this for my cfg.

Anarchj

yes, when i set 37 for the panel icons are bigger. My panel is 32, so it doesn't deals much space...So is not possible to make they bigger with a 32 panel?

fausto23

I think that is not possible, the size in the screenshoot is 37, i same like you i will try to lower size, but in 36 the icons still small.

Anarchj

ok, thank you!

Anarchj

hi, this is just what i was looking for!!! Thank you for this, i waited for something like! One question: can you make icons a little bigger, like the other on the panel? thanks again!

mistyrouge

Thanks very much! I haven't tryed it because I'm not on my computer but I'm looking for this kind of stuff for 2 year now. It's just a shame that we had to wait Microsoft to do that. Thanks again
