All these words and than forgetting to mention there is another variable that´s not stored in gconf backup, the desktop location the button points to.

So, when adding the 12 buttons, I also have to point them to the right desktop because they all go to the desktop on the left.

Hi anthonie,

those settings (transparency, size, ...) are saved in the config file
/home/user/.desktop_switcher/config

Thanks a lot, Nicolai. with those two combined things are to be restored real quick. _O_

Is there any way of configuring / customising / hacking the widget to run a named shell script each time it switches to a desktop - or to have it output a notification via DBUS when it does, so I can do so from dbus-scripts? Reason I ask is that for a long time I've used scripts to downgrade the radio mode to 2G (and set some other optimisations) any time the phone isn't in active use. Upgrading to 3G again when I want is a pain, though, I use the status menu applet, having tried shortcuts on my desktop (works, but launching via hildon is a pain) and automating it based on programs launched (takes effect a couple seconds too late). I've hacked up launcher scripts per applicaton but that's a pain, too.

What I want to do is to use this widget to have a "3G" desktop, where the mere act of switching to it puts the phone into 3G mode while I pick an application from that desktop, and by extension, I'd like to be able to run an arbitrary script upon arrival at any given desktop. In other words to do something like:

[ -f "/etc/desktop-switcher.d/$DESKTOP.sh ] && /bin/sh /etc/desktop-switcher.d/$DESKTOP.sh

Is that possible, or can it easily be hacked into the code?
