As it turns out, making litestep themes is not so easy after all:( I do read the docs but i still have to ask abou this.
HotlistName "minority"
PopupTitleAlignment Left
PopupTitleHeight 12
PopupTitleColor $bgcolor$
PopupSelFolderColor $selfolder$
PopupSelFolderBgColor $bgcolor$
PopupNoFolderArrow false
PopupEntryColor $borderc$
PopupEntryBgColor $bgcolor$
PopupSelEntryColor $selfolder$
PopupSelEntryBgColor $bgcolor$
PopupBevelLightColor $selfolder$
PopupBevelDarkColor $selfolder$
PopupNoMenuBevel false
PopupNoBevel true
PopupEntryFontFace $font$
PopupFontFace $font$
PopupFOntHeight 12
PopupSelEntryFontFace $font$
PopupSelEntryFontHeight 12
PopupFolderFontFace $font$
PopupFolderFontHeight 12
PopupSelEntryUnderline false
PopupIcons false

The Popup menu doesnt appear. i have *NetLoadModules popup2-2.1.6 in theme.rc, it doesnt give any errors, so there is no typos.

Ok i dont want to spam this forum with more threads so ill ask my noob questions in this thread :)

I have the taskbar width set to 250, it looks lame when you have like 2-3 tasks open and the rest of the bar is empty.
The max task width is 16, i have disabled text. i want the bar to reisize depending how many icons i have on the bar.
If i could make it get the number of the tasks i could make something like this
IF TasksOpen = 1
TaskarWidth 16
ELSEIF TasksOpen = 2
TaskbarWidth 32
etc..

that would be quite long.
any ideas ?

Isn't there an OnTaskAdd setting that you could do TaskbarWidth $TaskbarWidth+16$ to?

Posted by member 62644 on 2004-01-01 10:17:05 link

hmm, yes, but what should be the TaskbarWidth set to? i currently have it $ResolutionX$, that makes it quite long

DeV: that specific value ain't gonna work anyway because $$s are constant. (ie, evaluated once at load time)

taskbar3-0.306_alpha-3, maybe others:
TaskbarOnAdd !TaskbarGrow 16
TaskbarOnDel !TaskbarShrink 16

see...I knew it was something like that. hard to do from the office though without the manuals.
