You are talking about "Layout" sections, don't you?
This will be another possibility. I'm planning a plugin whioch can
change the current layout to another one. But this will be not that
easy, because the current code wasn't designed to "close" a layout. I'm
afraid there will be lots of unwanted side-effects (orphaned timers,
memory leaks, ...)
Another idea is to use the layers. This would solve the "normal display
interrupted by a phone call" issue.
One would use the normal layout on layer 1, and place the ISDN widgets
on layer 2, but make layer 2 invisible. Whenever a call happens, layer 2
will be made visible for some time (and will overlay layer 1, hiding the
widgets placed there)
bye, Michael
