The taskbar +can be located in the panel (default), or outside the panel on the +desktop. + +This module has options to control how the taskbar operates: + +Show windows from all desktops, determines +if all open windows are included in the taskbar or not. By default, +the taskbar only shows the open windows on the current +desktop. If this option is enabled, the taskbar will show +all open windows on all desktops. +Sort windows by desktop changes the +sort order of the icons on the taskbar, so that windows on virtual +desktop 1 are shown first (to the left, or at the top of the taskbar), +followed by windows on virtual desktop 2, and so on. + +Sort alphabetically by application name shows +the icons in an alphabetical sort order on the taskbar. + +You can have the taskbar Show only minimized +windows. In this case, when you minimize a window, it will +show up on the taskbar, and when you open it again, its taskbar entry +will disappear. + +You can disable Show application icons, and show just the +text. You might want to do this to save space on your taskbar, for +example. + +Using the Show window list button option, +you can enable a little button to be shown in the taskbar: this button +will open a popup menu offering access to applications on other desktops +as well as some useful actions, like Unclutter +Windows or Cascade Windows. + +Group similar tasks allows +you to save some space on your taskbar, by only showing one icon for +each running application, no matter how many windows are shown. You can +click on the icon to display a menu of all the windows that are +available. This is most useful when you have enabled Show windows +from all desktops. + +The next option allows you to set the Appearance to Elegant, Classic or For Transparency. + + + + +<guilabel>Actions</guilabel> + +The next set of options allow you to customize the actions +performed with different mouse clicks on taskbar icons. + +You can select any action from the list for the Left button, +the Middle button and the Right button. + +The options available are: + + + +Show Task List + +Show the list of tasks grouped under the icon you have clicked +on. If there is only one task or window for that icon, it will become +the active window. +This is the default action for the &LMB;. + + + + +Cycle Through Windows + +If there is more than one task grouped under the icon, switch +from one to the next, until you release the button (&ie; when you have +reached the window you are looking for). If there is only one task or +window for that icon, it will become the active window. + +This is the default action for the &MMB; if window grouping is +enabled. + + + + + +Show Operations Menu + +Show the operations menu for the application. This allows you +to minimize, maximize, &etc;, move windows between desktops, and close +windows. You can perform these actions on all windows grouped under +that icon, or on any single window, by choosing it from the +submenu. +This is the default action for the &RMB;. + + + + +Raise Task, Lower +Task, Minimize Task + +These three options make sense only if window grouping is +disabled. They are fairly self-explanatory. Raise means to make +active, bring to the front, and give focus. Lower means, send to the +back, and give focus to whichever window is now on top. + + + + + + + + +
