As in the title, the gui to adjust the taskbar does not appear. Here's my config:

    I know - the config doku is largely a port from a document i wrote long ago for TheRob and meanwhile i changed the taskbar implemetation (to get rid of libtaskbar)

    There's no GUI settings but i could relatively easily add it.
    Demand or just mention?

    You wrote all that documentation for R0b? Amazing!
    Anyway it's not a problem if there is no gui, just how do i set the config of the taskbar exactly? As you can see from my code i simply wrote:

    [Taskbar]
    Buttons=amarok,konsole,kate
    Mode=Buttons
    Spacing=4

    Attempting to try the modes that are explained in the wiki: AlwaysGroup,ButtonMode,OnlyCurrentDesk ,OnlyCurrentScreen ,OnlyMinimized,Buttons.

    What i have to write exactly for set the mode? And (hypotesis) if i want to set a launcher in the taskbar (like win 7, or the icon taskbar plasmoid in plasma) ?
    Is it possible?

    Sorry: This is the very last thing, it's just a matter of unerstanding. I LOVE THIS STUFF :D

    Just checked - it's worse.

    I only implemented AlwaysGroup & OnlyCurrentDesk
    OnlyMinimized & OnlyCurrentScreen have no impact at all - task for tonight ;-)

    If you add a button to the taskbar, that's a "launcher" (which will turn into a task once there's a matching window) - is that what you mean?

    Of course the button has to exist, ie. be a written

    [kate]
    Service=kde4/kate
    Type=Button

    "If you add a button to the taskbar, that's a "launcher" (which will turn into a task once there's a matching window) - is that what you mean?"

    Yes, thank you very much again! Now i'm gonna try it.

    Have a good night :D
