Right.... I love DnD for most thins, and i also love it how that panel pops up when you move your mouse down to it when its under a window. Getting my drift?... ;-) When i do, say, a save in edit, i would like to be able to bring the file down to the panel, and get it to pop up so i can drop it into home etc. Also, on the same subject of dialog boxes, is it possible to make them always on top? or at least an option. This would be really handy for stuff like copying, you select something, select copy then move to another folder, and have copy right there for you to drag it. a bit off topic, but... Does anyone else use RH8.0? if so have you noticed the metacity problem with Xmms and Xine not using always on top? if so have you found a fix?

Some versions of GTK get very confused if windows move about during a drag, though... > Also, on the same subject of dialog boxes, is it possible to make them > always on top? or at least an option.

Don't know about metacity, but most WMs will let you keep certain types of window on top. Saveboxes (including Copy) are marked with the 'Savebox' class, so you could get your WM to match just those, or you could set it for all dialogs (that might get a bit annoying, though). -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us...
