Tasks.dll

Enable task flashing

------------------------------

Label.dll

Net in and out meters
True alpha transparency
Folder file count meter (like binbox does for recycle bin)
------------------------------

Jdesk.dll

Extend desktop file drop with a context menu for either copy, move, create shortcut

------------------------------

Popup2.dll
Non expandable folders option
( so if you have *Popup Drives "!DynamicFolder:$Drives$" all drives will be click-able to open in explorer instead of opening into next level popups)

Scandir.dll

Support for folders that have paths like
::{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}

And a few more things that escape me right now

Jezz: there's a thread called "WishList" !!!

Posted by member 110 on 2003-06-03 18:23:45 link

yeah and its pretty old and full so I'd thought I'd start my own

Posted by member 33544 on 2003-06-04 19:18:58 link

with popup2 you can do that anyway?. just do a normal
*popup "C:\" explorer.exe C:
*popup "D:\" explorer.exe D:

its pretty simple man....

Yes you can do it but it dosn't update very dynamically does it if you create a new folder you have to go and edit your rc again

Posted by member 35747 on 2003-06-05 23:50:25 link

with popup, if you want to go to my computer, just write this line in your popup.rc...

*Popup "my computer" !execute [explorer /root,,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}]

and if you want the config panel... use this
*popup "config panel" !execute [explorer /root,,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}]

*note, i'm under XP, the key would be different for another win version

luthe: Should be fixed in .7

I tried to get tasks flashing in Glaze with taskbar v3.05 but ended up with all sorts of problems so I changed back to an older version.

Instead of using CLSIDs/CSLIDs...whatever...you should use the pre-defined eVars since they don't matter about OS type. http://docs.litestep.net/litestep.php

Posted by member 182 on 2003-08-01 14:07:50 link

i must add to this.

jDesk.dll
Ability for folder and contents to be created (in the defined Desktopfolder) if dragged onto desktop.

@ Ahaus:
whre do you get these lines from????
/root,,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}]

*/me scratches head*

Posted by member 1 on 2003-08-01 17:11:27 link

It is part of the MSDN...but most of them are converted to LS eVars already so I don't know what people are still using them for.

@Mr_Goat: actually i replaced tasks.dll with taskbar3.dll in 0.7 ;)
the main reason was in fact that tasks wasn't able to "flash" and btw the replacement fixed the "magic-pink bug" too :)

Posted by member 31 on 2003-08-03 21:36:34 link

magic-pink bug? In tasks.dll? In any case, regardless of the version of LS, tasks.dll doesn't support flashing.

I'll expand the drag'drop support in jDesk if I have time. Although if somone else wants to do it, please do.

Ahemm the tasks in my taskbar flash, i was not even aware of the modules in your theme :-)

Posted by member 1783 on 2003-08-04 04:24:37 link

@jugg: yup, tasks and lsbox have a minor conflict. the background of the box where tasks was loaded was magic-pink and sometimes (when returning from screensaver or when playing a movie for example) instead of being transparent the box was painted magneta.
with taskbar3 this doesn't occur so it must be something with tasks that lsbox doesn't like.

Posted by member 11949 on 2003-11-14 03:41:30 link

What about grouping tasks in folders eg. WinXP? Can this be done via scripts?

Posted by member 333 on 2003-11-14 04:00:42 link

I believe tasks-grouping is implemented in the latest taskbar-build.

Posted by member 7223 on 2003-11-14 16:46:53 link

Yes it is

Posted by member 182 on 2003-11-14 21:42:28 link

at the expense of many other options though :(
