Hi all,

I am currently using ObjectDock as my "taskbar" in Litestep and it works alright. It only displays windows active on the current desktop, but displays minimized windows on all desktops. I'm happy with it.

But I'd rather use Rocketdock which is free and looks better. Unfortunately, it doesn't play nicely with a VWM as far as I can tell.

Anyone have any experience with running Rocketdock and a VWM? Can I force it to behave properly somehow?

Interesting thing is, you can do !vwmgather and that will move the icons. Of course you don't want that, since it'll move all the windows, too.

Maybe you could work something out with *vwmsticky.

I just tried some things:

*VWMSticky #t *Rocketdock* doesn't work - apparently the VWM doesn't find the rocketdock "window" if it has one. I think the class is ROCKETDOCK, so I tried:

*VWMSticky #c ROCKETDOCK but that doesn't work either.

Any other thoughts?
