Hello,
I just put a new version (0.4) on extras-testing:
http://http://maemo.org/packages/pac...ick-launch/0.4
the improvements I made are the follows :
There are other two requested features:
the possibility to call quick-launch (simply popup the statusbar menu) with a shortcut and the possibility to add more rows.
For the first one I'm looking how to do it ( if someone have any hint, please give me ), the second I think it's not realizable (and also a little bit "insane"
)
P.S.: if after upgrading the statusbar crash, simply reboot
Best Regards,
Daniele Maio

(I will investigate if it depends on the HildonTouchSelector)

It's basically a statusbar item that shows four buttons each of which can be configured through a control panel applet to set a shortcut to your preferred applications.
It's on extras-testing now : http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...ck-launch/0.3/

Hello guys,
today I waked up with an idea on my mind regarding quick launch. Since I've realized that having it openable by a key shortcut or similar is mandatory, I think I've reached a solution.
For example when you open the camera shutter (so that also the others request would be satisfied) it doesn't make appear the statusbar menu (since it seems impossible, I have received no reply on that) , but, instead it make appear a simple dialog where you can choose the app you wish.
Now, why a dialog ?
A dialog can potentially contains n-icons of apps (or, moreover, all the apps you've installed in your device
), and I can add a button to run a program on-the-fly (like Alt+F2 does on standard desktop).
Other option would be make all the things live together : having the statusbar applet that contains your "more preferred" applications and the dialog that contains all (or n) apps.
Before going on to code , I would like to know what you think about it ?
Best Regards,
Daniele Maio

If you want to open the status menu by a command, install this package:
http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/770/n90...+0m5_armel.deb . After that the command
opens the status-menu. The same command with close instead of open closes it.
http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/770/n90...+0m5_armel.deb . After that the command
Code:
dbus-send --type=signal --session /com/nokia/hildon_desktop com.nokia.hildon_desktop.open_status_menu

By the way, great app. I would lile to move it's position in the status bar as discussed in this Thread. I want to move it nearer to the top so it doesn't get scrolled off the bottom of the status bar when there are a lot of activities going on. Only the built-in functions are listed in '/ect/hildon-desktop/status-menu.plugins' Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks,
Fred

So I agree, who wants to stop at 2 rows!
