Have you resized by dragging the little handle in the lower right?

is there a way to get a font bigger than 60? is so that would make the desktop even more finger_friendly!

You can change the iconsize in the ".personal_launcher.rc" file in your home directory. You can make it as big as you want.

The problem with this, is most applications don't supply an icon bigger than 64x64, so if you go bigger the result might look stretched and pixilated.

Now for my own wishful thinking....a home screen applet launcher that "minimizes" or Docks them off the edge of the screen....

Thank you for your excellent contributions to our community!

I eagerly await your next offering

I'm running version 0.4-1 on my N800 with Diablo. The only app that consistantly crashes my desktop is the Control Panel. I haven't tried all my apps but of the 5 I have shown, it's the only one that does it.
Hope this helps!

I like the little animation for the icons. Kinda cool, but I am still suffering the occasional Desktop reset. Seems to be related to Application Manager Icon, but it could be some kind of leak too since it generally happens after a long period of idle time.

Is there a debug log file somewhere I can check?

version 0.4-1

It could be a leak, although if it is happening every two to three clicks it would have to be a big one. I did start valgrinding and didn't find anything significant.

Thanks for the Control Panel and Application Manager hints. I have had exactly one desktop reset, so haven't been able to reproduce. I will look into this.

There is no log file, I do my debugging in scratchbox where you can see the error messages without logging.

In my case it only happens occasionally, not every 2 -3 clicks, thats why I thought it might be a leak.

Could it be conflicting with another Applet? I have GPE Summary, Yellownotes, and OMWeather running on my desktop besides Personal Launcher.
