Sorry to be a pest, but I have to ask <grin> is it possible to have a second personal launcher created...? Was thinking how cool it would be to have 2 groups of icons at opposite sides of screen

seems like you have work ahead of you, just tried the one from extra-devel and it has the same problem...

I realise that you already know this, but to reinforce the problem is widespread, crashes my desktop too.

Also, after the crash, when reinstating all of the applets, combined volume and brightness application as been eaten (advance backlight app).

weird.

looks like I have to uninstall and reinstall.

It wasn't crashing for me, but when I updated to 0.4-1 some hours ago, it crashed on disable and not it crashes on every enable...

bundyo: You will have to check, but I think you are running 0.4. 0.4-1 hasn't made it into extras-devel yet (should be soon) but it is in garage. I just tried 0.4-1, and it fixed it for me.

That's good news.

EDIT: Yes, works, thanks.

too fix that after a deskktop crash, simply run the panels app in control panel. dont do any changes in there, just run it and close it again with ok. that should restore any custom statusbar applets.

hey fiferboy, coupla bits of feedback -

in the first version if i had say six entries/icons, and stretched the bar right across the desktop, they wrre evenly spaced with a lot of space between them. This isn't reproducably in version 4 as far as i can see - setting the maximum spacing still has them quite close to each other, and stretching the bar across the screen just leaves empty space... liked it as it was, bercause less chance of hitting wrong icon...

love the animation effect in selected icon in latest version though....

also, all apps work ok from persoanl launcher shoretcuts ecxept skype, which causes the screen to rest to white/blank background, no image or anythnig. this is reproducable for me, ie happens everytime. tbh, ive gone back to version 1 for the mo!

cheers
for all your work on this!

flareup: There is an option to set the padding between icons. You can set it to what you want.

How did you add skype? I don't have it installed to test, can anyone else see if this happens to them too?
