[Bug 217507] Re: Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz
I have the same problem with Ubuntu 9.04 and screenlets 0.1.2. Problem is the same, if I clicking on the Show Desktop button hides the Screenlets along with other windows. There is no compiz, metacity or another special program installed only the 9.04 pure and the screenlets package.

I tested the idea from fabio. I found the file in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/screenlets/__init__.py I found the self.window.set_type_hint(gtk.gdk.WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_DOCK) in the line 810.

[Bug 217507] Re: Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz
I'm using Ubuntu Intrepid (gnome) with screenlets version 0.1.2. I edited __init__.py and replaced the line self.window.set_type_hint(gtk.gdk.WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_TOOLBAR) with self.window.set_type_hint(gtk.gdk.WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_DOCK) As stated earlier this fixed the problem with the screenlets disappearing but the wierd thing is; the screenlets are still movable!

[Bug 217507] Re: Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz
** Description changed: Binary package hint: screenlets Hello, I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Beta with Screenlets 0.0.12. This version allows using Screenlets without Compiz (just metacity), and the problem is, clicking on the Show Desktop button hides the Screenlets along with other windows. It would be better if there was some option to oppose this behavior. This becomes a bit annoying after a while when it is necessary to minimize all windows to see the Screenlets. GDesklets however, don't dissapear on show desktop.

[Bug 217507] Re: Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz
Yes, editing __init__.py file solve the problem, but after editing this it looks like the screen area is given only once for each screenlet (when it starts), so that if the screenlet tries to change its size or shape later (as Clear Weather screenlet does), the transformed screenlet steel has the same shape. Probably, the best way to solve this problem is to add to the Metacity option don't hide if skips taskbar. -- Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217507 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am confused... Does that mean it won't happen, will take a while to happen, or we just can't tell? shouldn't window.set_keep_below be mapped to that? currently, AFAICT, window.set_keep_below and window.set_keep_above are inverses of each other.

some research brought me to gtk.Window.set_keep_below and gtk.Window.set_keep_above. I'm not sure whether set_keep_above needs explicitly to be false though. (checking gdesklets source, they're doing this reaaally complicated: they wrote a C-module which sends X events, I hope you won't need something like this as set_keep_below should do the same AFAICT). -- Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217507 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
