DockbarX

lp:dockbar

Created by Michaël Vanderheeren on 2009-04-04 and last modified on 2014-06-16

This branch holds new "experimental" features such as launchers, new look and more customizable options. The goal of this branch is to bring new and innovative features to enhance the experience of using DockBar in the long run, rather than to bring stability in terms of predictable behavior from a release to the next. The branch do aim to be as bug free as possible, though, and to be usable for everyday computer usage (for people who are not bothered by rapid changes), not just for beta testing. The main developer of this branch is Matias Särs.

536. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-16: Version 0.91
- Bug #1316501 and #1329240: Xfce4-terminal was unpinable and had the wrong icon in Xubuntu.
- Fixed small bug regarding handling of groups without a desktopentry.
- README and CHANGELOG updated.
535. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-14: - Fixed a bug that broke certain menu options (like unpin application) if zeitgeist was not installed. Last commit reverted and a new fix is done.
534. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-14: - Fixed a bug that broke certain menu options (like unpin application) if zeitgeist was not installed.
533. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-14: - DockbarX now checks for gnome-desktop-item-edit or exo-desktop-item edit and uses the one installed when editing launchers instead of just assuming that gnome-desktop-item-edit is installed.
532. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-14: - Improved code separation: everything specific to gnomeapplet is moved out of dockbar.py and into dockbar_factory. The dockbar class is also not acting differently depending on if it is runned in dockx, awn or gnome panel, instead it needs to be instructed by the calling class on how to act.
- The awn applet has been broken since size overflow management was introduced. It works again now (but it can't still manage size overflow).

530. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-10: - Fixed a bug that filled up the log with source ID warnings.
529. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-10: - The battery applet added some empty space underneat it when the dock was reloaded (only on vertical docks). Fixed.
528. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-10: - The dock behaves in a more sane way when a namebar, window title or two spacer applets are used (it looks like it did before the size overflow feature were added.
- Some code clean up in dockx file.
527. By Matias Särs on 2014-06-08: - Added some possible paths for the appindicator-service bin. The appindicator applet should start the service correctly for Ubuntu 14.04 now.
