TaskSwitch

I liked the idea of KSmoothDock, especially on my laptop, where space is sometimes at a premium, but I'm not convinced by the idea of replacing the entire panel. So I thought I'd have a go at producing something similar, that worked as part of Kicker.

v 0.1: First cut; only works with panel at top of screen.
v 0.2: I've fixed the clipping of the text and added a shaded hemisphere behind the icons to improve the clarity. Still only works at the top of the screen; I'll work on making it work in the other panel locations next.
v 0.3: I've now made it work it all panel positions and fixed an intermittent crash.

If I've understood correctly from my quick play with it, SpinAndLaunch is an alternative way of launching new instances of applications. TaskSwitch is a way of switching between already running instances.
I really like the translucent background you've got there: I think that might be something I ought to imitate - sincerest form of flattery and so forth!

Actually i haven't tried your software, just 've seen the circular thing with icons ;)
Some (Italian) guy emailed me the "liquid weather"-like background,
it is really nice.

I've built taskswitch and found...
1 doesn't work at the bottom.
2 fonts are crunched. I can't see the entire thing.
I'm looking forward to see this one develop. If you need help in testing, please visit #arklinux on freenode. I and the others would be very happy to help.
Thanks.
