/ Re: Suggestion: (Dynamic) Zbar on single monitor? |
on: Yesterday at 7:24pm |
| Started by Peter2 | Post by joseng |
I really don't understand why none of the second taskbar bar program developers implement support for single monitors. Dual taskbars is a feature that comes standard with many Linux distributions. It's really quite productive, ask Ubuntu users.
I have actually found a way to create a second taskbar on a single monitor with the combination of three applications.
While I'm relatively happy with what I've accomplished, I still feel it's lacking what I really want. A second taskbar application that inherits the look and functionality of the Windows taskbar would be ideal. With the ability to move objects from one to the other (Start button, clock, systray, quicklaunch shortcuts, running and pinned applications, etc).
Also having to run three applications to create the taskbar I have isn't the greatest. The other thing I'm missing is an alternative system tray. (ObjectDock is not an option as it's systray only supports 32bit OSes)
Here is what I've currently have:

/ Counter for recurring alarms? |

Hi Tom,
I think it would be a good idea, if stickies could count in the titlebar, how many ignored alarms of the same source are at the desktop without beeing closed.
Maybe there could be a setting in the options which added as the first figures the number of the alarm.
This could help to count, how many an assigned tusks had been overslept - or it could help to measure the time of my nap did last or how many pills orderd by a docktor I've forgott.
Greetings
sandiger

Hello Tom,
Since Bart is working OK, consider this message as a reminder in case you want to update the Bart webpage with the new zip download and the new feature you made available.
While updating the webpage, please don't forget to replace 'hav' with 'have' in 'Jobs can now hav colours assigned to them'. 
Regards,
John

I guess my solution would be to write some shortcuts which run the api.exe with commands to send to Stickies. I think that's more useful than command line parameters, as then anyone using the API can make those functions happen.
However, Sooyke's idea is a pretty good one as well. I guess you're best to decide which works better for you!
If you need me to add any API commands, or better explain what I mean, let me know.
Tom

Sooyke - I think it's to do with the window style when it's created - I suspect the Windows-M cycles through all windows, checks to see whether they have the WS_MINIMIZE style, and sends messages to those which do.
For a better answer, ask MS

Hi Gunjan
Reblack was the first skin i used after i found the way to the skin webpage .
No systray?That is a bold move ,like taking out the dashboard from your car !
This has been asked before on the forum and i do not remember an easy answer.
The only way i see ( i hope others will have easier solutions) is to use a scripting language to transform the hotkeys into Sendkey commands and use them as a shortcut link.The api commandline does not have many options that are useful here only new sticky and open manage but i can be wrong.
Most commands are available as a button using skinner and V7.0 allows multiple skins so you could make a dedicated skin/sticky ( maybe only an icon) that fits the theme of your desktop .You could make the four corners act like a button or design some to open friends/manage/options/backup.....
The "sticky" would appear using a winhide/winshow command (almost every scripting language has this) that you can place as a shortcut link into your objectdock ( i guess because i do not have it but i presume it functions like quicklaunch)
Best regards
SooyKe

Good suggestion , John!
If you use AHK you can go a step further because a toggle function would be useful.
Because you have to store the toggle_status a shortcut is more difficult ( unless you use two) you need an ini file.
The following AHK program uses upper left corner as a hotcorner if the mouse goes there it will send the win+m command and toggles next time to win+shift+m.
Code:#Persistent
#SingleInstance force
T=4
SetTimer, CheckMouse, 500
return
CheckMouse:
CoordMode, Mouse, Screen
MouseGetPos, MouseX, MouseY
if (MouseY < T and MouseX < T )
{
SoundBeep, 100, 10
a:=MouseX+15
b:=MouseY+15
MouseMove,a,b
sleep 200
c:=!c
if c=1
Send, #m
if c=0
Send, #+m
}
return
Best regards
SooyKe :)

/ Desktop Shortcuts for Stickies? |
on: Nov 19th, 2009, 02:12am |
| Started by G. Ch. | Post by G. Ch. |
Hi All,
As Introduction, I would simply say, look through the skins, and you would find a few designed by Gunjan Chowdhary. Well, thats me.
Now to the point. I am using ObjectDock by Stardock. Owing to which, I have hidden the title bar, hence, no access to status bar.
I am aware of the global hotkeys but am not very comfortable using them.
Is there a way to create a simple shortcuts to access and operate Stickies from the ObjectDock?
A list of command line switches would help a lot here.
Anyone can help me out with this?
