Could you give me a bit more details, what you ran and more of the error log?

If you have a GitHub account, it might be easier to file a bug there:

In repo version, Application Menu now uses the same transparency level as the dock panel's. See: https://github.com/dangvd/ksmoothdock/issues/110 - Dec 01 2019

It's fixed at the moment, but I can add the setting. Bug created: https://github.com/dangvd/ksmoothdock/issues/110

Now that the major change has been done, I should be able to work on this and the clock font feature for the next release.

Thanks. About your point, there are a few versions of Crystal icon themes in the past, and the point of my project is not to replicate any one of them, but rather mix/enhance them in a way that looks better (in my personal taste) than the originals. With the back/forward arrows, I did try different alternatives and what I end up using is what I like the best. Also, in a few cases, I created my own derivative icons (for example, the email icon or the edit-select icon) to replace the originals. - Apr 04 2018

Sorry for the late reply -- I was away, and thanks for your comment!

As for the feature, I'll consider it, although for now there are higher priority features that I need to work on first. If you have account on GitHub, could you file an issue here so we can track it? https://github.com/dangvd/ksmoothdock/issues

Thanks! - Jul 10 2017

Thanks!
Could you please file a feature request in https://github.com/dangvd/ksmoothdock/issues so that we can track it?
Also FYI currently KSmoothDock does have some multiscreen support e.g. the dock will center in the first screen. Although there is a bug with setting position on the right of the screen with multiscreen, and there is a feature request to set different wallpapers for different screens (you can see them on the Issues page above). - May 06 2017

Thanks a lot!

Yeah when KDE4 was first released, it wasn't very nice to use and develop on, and I got distracted with other stuffs... Anyway I'm back now.

The autohide feature is being worked on and I'll release it in the next version (5.2) in a few week's time. For that bug and others, you can see them here: https://github.com/dangvd/ksmoothdock/issues - Mar 19 2017

Hi there,

Sorry for the bugs that some of you encounter. The problem for me is that I cannot reproduce these bugs, so I cannot fix them :(

It seems that these are due to incompatibility between different KDE versions and/or Linux distributions.

If you have any idea on how to solve this, please let me know.

Regards,
Viet D(z)ung
P.S.: FYI I'm using OpenSuSe 10.2 (KDE 3.5.5)

Hi guys,

Sorry for the crash bugs. Although it doesn't happen on my PC, it seems to happen in a considerable number of cases. I am investigating the problem and trying to fix it.

Does it happen for a specific command or for any command?

Can you email me the command that causes the lock-up? - May 07 2007

I have taken out the primitive support for Xinerama in 3.x versions in order to properly implement it in version 4.x (e.g. recognise the size of the left monitor automatically...)

Sorry for the inconvenience for the moment. - May 07 2007

I don't know why ./configure failed, but what distribution are you using? probably you can look for its binary package.
Cheers, - Apr 22 2007

Various Plasma 5 Improvements by dangvd 703 comments

I will implement it eventually, but probably after system tray. In the mean time, you can put it on the left or right side... - Apr 22 2007

In order to be able to compile from source, you need kde development packages and their dependencies. So please install kde development packages first.

Hi,
Kooldock actually looks similar because it is a fork of KSmoothDock 2.x. KSmoothDock can run faster or slower, depending on the settings you choose (i.e. zoom mode, components...).

Various Plasma 5 Improvements by dangvd 703 comments

I will implement applet support for KSmoothDock. However, there are stuffs that need to be done first, like system tray support.

Hi,
The popup menu depends on the section of the dock that you are clicking on.

Try clicking onto a launcher, a pager or the clock and have a look ;)

Have you tried install libgamin-dev?
Some user has fixed the bug by this.

Btw, this is really a strange bug as KSMoothDock works perfectly well for KDE 3.5.1 (in general 3.5.x before 3.5.5). I can't understand why a bug-fix release like 3.5.5 would break things. - Nov 18 2006

Hi,

Inserting a separator between 2 launchers could confuse users, as at the moment the separator is used to separate the launchers and the taskbar if the pager is not shown.

I'll think about your other request though.

Hi,

The bug has been fixed in 4.3. Now it will move the icons just enough to have the space for the minimised dock if auto-hiding is not on.

About real transparency, I will do it when more people use it and the technology is more mature. Even I cannot make xgl run on my machine :(

Thanks,

You need to have development package (kde-devel, gcc...) in order to compile KSmoothDock from source.

Yes, but only if there are icons that maybe under the dock. Basically, the dock sets a new icon area whenever it starts or changes its position so as the user can always see all the icons on his/her desktop.

Various Plasma 5 Improvements by dangvd 703 comments

Yes, but only when the real transparency technology is more mature and accessible to more people (it's not at the moment).

Btw I'm really looking forward to use real transparency as it will eliminate many current display bugs (due to fake transparency).

Hi, it seems that quite many people are having problems compiling the source package I posted. I'll try to use another Linux machine to build another source package and post here very soon.

It works like kicker: to configure the dock, right-click on the launchers, you will see the program's pop-up menu (Right-click on a task shows task popup menu instead).

Various Plasma 5 Improvements by dangvd 703 comments

Yeah at the moment the separator is missing, I will re-implement it very soon.

About the system tray, if it is implemented there will always be an option to turn it off, so it will not affect your current setting.

Lucher, it seems that you are not using the latest version. There is no confkickerdialog.* nor confdialog.*

Please download the latest version.

Please check that you have KDE development packages installed. And try:

Various Plasma 5 Improvements by dangvd 703 comments

Yes, I am aware of the problem. I will try to fix it. In the mean time, you could try setting the dock position to Left or Right.
