This works fine on my n800 with latest firmware, although I have one major issue with the usablity of it.
The toolbar doesn't seem to be fully resizable in "edit layout" mode, you can just make it shorter or longer, but this just makes the shortcuts tiny.

Hi Misha,
I think Adam is proposing to be able to expand it heightwise and allow more rows as well.
So theoretically, if your applet was the only applet used, and expanded fully, with transparent background, then it would be as if putting shortcuts on the desktop!

As for the software, it's good. Those were the only bugs that I could find so far. The author did mention about this limitation
if the application does not support d-bus activation, you cannot select it (this will be fixed soon)
Do you think that is the reason for the blank text and some programs being unselectable?

It was a rough day dealing with inconsistent input from various sources at work. After chasing false leads for 9 hrs the solution was simple and was my first instinct in the first hour anyway... before all the "helpful" input.
I must have transferred my angst to my post.
Again, my humble apologies.

In any event MishaS has corrected most of these bugs in a new release >> https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=131
Since he has also opened a new thread for problems >> http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ead.php?t=5511
I figured we could continue to use this thread for praise and other insights.

Did I say WOW! The new release adds support for much more and things like "Connection Manager" and "Bookmarks" can now be launched from the app.
It occured to me that we now have no need at all for the Maemo launcher with the globe, two dudes, and the files icons.
I wonder how hard it would be to hack this out and reclaim the screen real estate?

Hi YoDude,
Yeah, I was thinking, if he made the software have a transparent background, and be able to scale the applet so that it could expand width AND heightwise so that more icons (more rows, more colums), then it could possibly be like on a PC desktop where we had shortcuts to most of the needed apps.

Hi Munky261,
Yup, just the icons would appear. The background would be whatever you have on your desktop's background. Something like your PC's Windows Desktop....

that is what we would want re transparent. but the launcher is a row of buttons. and these buttons have a system size and system colour I believe. so to make it how we want might be hard to do 
but I hope the Simple Launcher developer can figure it out
