  issue 29 (Dual Screen) reported by AlCady   -   Wbar positioning [up, bottom, center] in Twinview cause bar appears beetween the screens. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Possibility to choose a screen could be great. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Wbar 1.3.3 on 2.6.30-gentoo-r5 x86_64 (amd64) using NVidia drivers 180.60 with Twinview. Please provide any additional information below. Wbar positioning seems great. But in TwinView mode, X believes there is a unique large display, so in my dual screen configuration ( second screen extending the first on its left ) using [up, bottom, center] position cause wBar to appears half on each screen ( if horizontal ). In vertical configuration ( of wBar ) 1/5 of the bar is on the second screen.

  issue 9 (Start session) commented on by mhall119   -   I have the same issues with Fluxbox. It seems that wbar takes a screencapture of what's behind it, and draws itself semi-transparent on top of that, to make it look like it has real transparency. I'm guessing you're starting wbar before you start fb, right? I think you will need to set the X root window to your background image before you start wbar, and then start fluxbox. I haven't tried it yet though.

  issue 11 (make config doesn't work) commented on by balloonpeople   -   I downloaded the .deb file and installed it in Ubuntu 8.04LTS, couldn't find anything, reinstalled it a few times, RDFMed a few blogs about it, ran it in terminal and momentarily got it running while in terminal. It's very nice and I love it while using gOS. As soon as I close the terminal in Ubuntu, however, the wbar disappears. While open, right-clicking doesn't give me any re-positioning options, it merely reloads the bar onscreen and in the terminal (as superbar). There's got to be an easier way to install and configure this thing.

Start WBar, either manually or through WM startup script 3. Open any window and maximize it 4. Grind teeth as window maxes over WBar What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

WBar version 1.3.3 on Gentoo Linux 64-bit Please provide any additional information below. Someone in #fluxbox on freenode suggested submitting a feature request/bug report for this. Although I'm not a coder, I know there are supposed to be standard WM hints for "struts" that could be used to implement this feature. Some WMs/DEs (Openbox and XFWM4 for example) do have margin support, but it would be much cleaner if WBar itself had support for not being maximized over.

  issue 13 (Auto disappear and background problem) reported by daniele.calisi   -   First of all, a suggestion: an auto-disappear feature will be very useful. I mean the possibility of the wbar to disappear and appear when the mouse is in some border of the screen (e.g., like the kde4 plasma add widget button) Second: I see you are not using a true transparent window. This can be a problem if the wbar starts over a (part of a) window, or even if the desktop wallpaper changes (the background is the one that was behind the wbar when it was started) I'm on a Linux machine, Kubuntu 8.04.1, KDE4.1
