Stasks for KDE 4.3 RC1 with peek
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Please note that this plasmoid is currently not being maintained. For an actively developed version, see
http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Smooth+Tasks?content=101586
You can also check here:

in case the original developer ever decides to update his code.
___________
This is a patched version of the stasks for KDE 4.3 RC1 that enables composited peeking when hovering over a preview.
Original stasks by mbaszczewski. Patched to use all panel space thanks to Zawertun. Patched for KDE 4.3 RC1 by BenderBendingRodriguez.
Install instructions are in the folder.
To build it you will need kdebase4-workspace-devel (names may vary for other distributions) I've successfully built it on Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 with Qt 4.5.1
If you use sudo for root access, just run 'sudo ./install.sh' (no quotes) in the stasks-0.5.1-peek folder.

This plasmoid, on the other hand, is simply STasks from march patched to work with KDE 4.3 and to have the peek ability. That's basically all you need if you aren't really demanding.
You may wish to try them both. Just make sure not to try original STasks, since it does not work with KDE 4.3 ATM.

Apparently it cannot find the compiler during the make step... are there any suggestions to this? Thanks.

Aside from that, don't use this :) It is unmaintained, and was only intended as a quick fix. Try http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Smooth+Tasks?content=10158
Its a fork of the same plasmoid, but its currently being maintained, whereas this is just a quick fix. The original seems to have been abandoned, despite the claims of its creator that he will work on it more.

Because 4.3 is now officially released, the original creator might make an update.

This is where it was updated for KDE 4.3 RC1. I just patched for peek. The patch probably won't be affected. Just in case I miss it, you can post here again when I have something to patch ;) Or you can try yourself using the patch :P

Yeah, that's something that should be in the effect. I might try to find a way to restore windows during peek, but it would have to bypass the restore effect...

I'm checking out the source files for the box switch effect and the highlight effect to see how to do it, but I don't see being able to distribute the fix effectively.
