| Hi, the desktop in its practical view is here: link This version shows off a launcher idea realized with BBInterface that I saw on cairoshell.com in one of the concept shots. Apart from BB as usual I have rocketdock below and samurize to emulate the desktop and also for clock and sysstats. | ||

| cthu1hu | Looks professional. And that is now my favo-rite wallpaper. About bb on Vista: prepare to be disappointed. For one thing, there's no systray. Kinda needed on my laptop. |
| Shraizor | Cool! Perfect work :) One question: toolbar shadow on link maded by samurize or it is a part of wallpaper? 2cthu1hu: bbiconbox correctly displays systray on Vista, and on this screenshot i see systray too :) |
| cthu1hu | @Shraizor: Not the bbiconbox I tried. (He's using XP in the shot) |
| szekelya | In fact this is Windows 2000. The shadow is part of the wallpaper to use less resources. Samurize wouldn't be a good choice for this, because that way the config area would be too big. I think if bbiconbox can use styles, I might be able to emulate a full bar on vista with systembarex as you can turn off each elements separately there. But are you ure you got no tray on Vista with any of the bb branches? |
| cthu1hu | You might get your user icons in the shot above, actually, but system icons were moved to a different place. Plus there's the annoying pause at bootup, like the old days of bb and XP. I uninstalled and went back to explorer on Vista. *tears* |
| dpcdpc11 | awesome shot my friend! and i've also tried bbClean on Vista and it has some problems with the tray[does not display all the icons correctly] and some problem with the menu linking to the system folder... and of course the damn lag at the log on... that suck balls... luckily i dual boot vista and xp[with bb as main shell of course] so i get the best of both worlds! and the cairo shell idea is pretty awesome.. would like to see that shell soon... but it's taking like forever to release it! i'm curious btw how you manage to move that whole bbi frame... did you used broms? |
| k3ttc4r | i did a similar thing recently, and i used a script with two bro@ms, one to change the y position on the frame containing my bbleanbar and the button, and the other one to make the frame containing the menu visible. for each of the menu buttons, i used scripts again - two broams to reverse those actions, and an exec to start the programs. btw, nice shot :D |
| oldskull | I got Vista here. Using bbclean with systray on bbLeanbar without problem also right now using bbIconBox systray without problem too. BTW nice setting on your screenshot |
| szekelya | Thanks folks. Yep, all the magic is done by bro@ms. |
| dpcdpc11 | so i did it... made the frame change it's Y position from a button... but got a problem with the 'Always on top' frame... it get's on top of the full screen apps as well like my video player... and the frame is not that useful unless it's always on top... how did you manage to solve this issue?? |
| szekelya | Well I'm not sure I got your point, but here's my experience: Obviously I had to set both my bar --I use systembarex, but that would be the same with bbleanbar-- and that black frame containing the launcher buttons to always on top. Now the launcher is only visible when I want to launch something, so I'm happy if it's really always on the top. While the bar has this property, in some cases I'd like it to be on top of most things, but not on top of others, such as a full-screen browser window (rarely use it in full screen) or a full screen image viewer. However the bar is not on top of my full screen video players, including media player classic, applian flv player or windows media player. Since it's not on top of these video players, I can't even press the startbutton invoking the launcher area, so that behaviour is fine as well. Still, I'd love to be able on one hand to check on what layer (is this called Z-order?) my different apps are, on the other hand to set where should my bbinterface object be instead of setting the way underdefined "on top" thingy. |
| miqlas | Hallod, ez nagyon jó lett. Gratulálok! ;) Elárulnád, hogy a jobbra-balra gombot mivel készÃtetted (a képen látszik, bár lehet, hogy a háttérkép része)... remélem, a virtuális asztalok között vált. Mégegyszer: nagyon szép lett! |

| szekelya | Örülök, hogy ennyire tetszik. :))) A jobbra-balra gomb nem a háttér, hanem 1-1 BBInterface gomb, > caption-nel, és valóban workspace-eket vált jobbra és balra. (Jobb klikkre fordÃtott irányba, mert lusta vagyok áthúzni az egeret a másik oldalra.) That was about the left and right buttons on the sides of the shot, which are BBInterface buttons switching workspaces. I saw something similar on another shot, there it was used to switch wallpapers, which I don't need, but the GUI idea was great. |
| TibeRiuS | awesome work.. btw what's the style name? |
| szekelya | @Tiberius: thanks a lot. The style currently is called mac_dark because I have modified one of my previous mac-like lighter styles. Didn't plan to upload it because the objects I don't use (e.g. workspace switcher and task behavior changer toolbar buttons) are not set in the style, also people tend not to tolerate the captionless menus I use. :) |
