This is the best dock-type application! I just have one feature request, if possible. I notice window previews (it only shows the icon) and opacify don't work when a window is minimized. It would be nice to have an option to enable this.
Thanks in advance!

Previews for minimized windows is possible with compiz 0.9.2 or kwin (the kde window manager).
Report
InverseHypercube

Basically the previews should always be shown, and opacify shows the selected window (not an empty desktop), but it remains minimized. I find this behaviour desirable because often I want to switch to a minimized window, and knowing which one would be helpful.
Thanks in advance!

It could be possible to have DockbarX unminimize windows when a group button is howered and minimize them again when the cursor leaves the button. This could have quite a few unwelcome side effects though. It will surely make the alt+tab order seem random. ;)
Thinking about it... you could probably just as well (or just as badly) fake the whole opacify effect on computers that doens't use compiz by temporarily minimizing all other windows.
I can't make up my mind. Is this a _really_ dumb idea or something actually worth testing?

There is also the problem of non-minimizable windows, but they are pretty rare.

- Did you check the option "show previews" in DockbarX preference?
- Is the kde compability plugin activated in compiz settings manager?
- Is "use plamsa previews" (or whatever it's called) checked in the kde compability plugin?

I have a few features higher up on the priority list than this feature though. You'll have to wait a few releases, but it will be there before the next "stable" version 0.50.

Another bug appears when I run SPE( stani python editor), dockbarx allows me to pin down the app but it automatically adjusts the icon and although the app is pinned down, I cannot launch it from dockbarx like the other apps.
I hope you fix these problems soon and after all, thank you very much for creating such a wonderful app.

It seems that the icons are places too far apart
Report

Alternatively you can edit the theme you want to use yourself to something that suits you. It's mainly the gap and aspect_ratio of button_pixmap that needs to be adjusted to decrease the distance between the icons.

The thing is that I can't go back to 0.40 because I'll miss the close button on window previews too much :P
Having said all that, it's your app. You don't need me to tell you that. You make it the way you want it as would I if it was mine. That's as it should be. I'm just hoping that my comments might help motivate you to make it as awesome as possible for the largest number of people possible :)
Anyway, I'll continue to use it regardless. It's impressive stuff.
