Subject: Kicker improvements
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-devel&m=99164703719074

I'm about to commit some improvements to kicker, namely, more 
configurability of panel extensions. To do this I have created a common 
base class for the panel and panel extensions, which reduced a lot of code 
duplication and means that panel extensions now have all the features of 
the main panel -- auto-hide is the most requested of these. Right now there 
isn't any gui for this, but if you want to test it out, edit the 
appropriate config file (e.g. taskbarextensionrc) and restart kicker. The 
gui should probably consist either of another kcontrol module or another 
tab within the kicker control module. Suggestions here are welcome, as are 
any bug reports, praise, or constructive criticism.

Known issues: Panels are sometimes raised above mac-style menubar. With 
multiple panels, sometimes the window-manager strut settings aren't perfect 
after moving them around.

later,
John
