Alt-F2 is a global metacity keybinding; when Metacity detects that keypress, it sends a message to the root window that gnome-panel monitors for; gnome-panel then launches the run application dialog. One possibility (though I don't know how difficult this would be to do) would be having gnome-panel detect if deskbar is running and forward any open-run-dialog messages to it instead of what it normally does; if deskbar isn't running, then gnome-panel could just launch the normal dialog it has. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
