There is an applet on which I'm working now (rather, on porting) which provides some concepts from minimalistic WMs (predominantly tiling ones) which besides the basic functions (simply control by desktops) was able to hide selected panels by hotkey pressing. I.e. atm this action should look like such applet [1]. As long as I don't bond to any prefered realization, it may be implemented by any reasonable way, e.g. Dbus calls, library functions (but calling external application/script is an undesirable way of course). 1. http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Panel+Toggle?content=149654 -- Sincerely yours, Evgeniy Alekseev e-mail: darkarca...@mail.ru ICQ: 407-398-235 Jabber: arca...@jabber.ru
