lxqt-panel doesn't always update some apps' taskbar text when the window's title changes. This appears to happen mostly on Qt apps.

First filed with qupzilla here: QupZilla/qupzilla#1419

Shows difference between window title and button text

lxqt-panel 0.7.0, Ubuntu 14.04 amd64, package version: 0.7.0+bzr607+201407041902~ubuntu14.04.1

I get a build failure in the taskbar plugin:

In multihead, the panel covers windows instead of reserving the space.

Eg if the panel is on the bottom, it covers the bottom of a fullscreen window.

Hello,

please make the LXQt panel work like the Microsoft Windows 7 Taskbar:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/help/better-stronger-faster-the-windows-7-taskbar
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa511446.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd378460%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

or DockbarX / DockX:

http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/dockbarx-sees-new-release-now-available.html
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPslUYIwgag

or the Cinnamon Window List with App Grouping panel applet:

http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/16

for example.

Or, with other words:

Please make the task buttons so that they function as application launchers and please add application grouping, window lists, window previews, jump lists, overlay icons, thumbnail toolbars and so on.

And please improve the vertical mode of the LXQt panel.

Currently the vertical panel is much too wide and so on.

The vertical panel mode is extremely important IMHO, because, IMHO, on widescreen displays, it makes much more sense to use a vertical panel instead of a horizontal panel.

It would be much appreciated.

Regards

Recently lxqt-panel doesn't compile on my system anymore, due to the following errors.

             if (xdg->isSuitable())

Any clue what can be causing this?

AlsaEngine::setMute() only work partially.
It can mute the sound card, but it cannot unmuted it again.
This happens when the ALSA sound card is emulated with PulseAudio and the alsa backend of the plugin is used.
Alsamixer works fine and can mute/unmute correctly.
So it's definitely a bug, not the problem of alsa or the hardware.

I already did some test on it. snd_mixer_selem_set_playback_switch_all() returned 0 means that the operation succeeded, but my sound card is not unmuted. So weird.
I have been working with alsa in the past and I guess this might be related to event polling stuff.
When you use your own poilling mechanism instead of the ALSA one, weird things can happen. I'm not sure if this is relevant, though.

i tried to build qCheckGMail against the latest git version it failed to build because "lxqtpanelglobals.h" header file currently not installed by the panel build process.

Hope the following output will add some sense to what i have just said

There is a small "_" below the icon on selected delegates.

For some delegates the text is clipped on the bottom of a delegate

Probably related to the second issue, the bounding rect for delegates seems wrong. I was looking into the code briefly and maybe the size hint calculation is different from the actual rendering?

When I right click the date and time widget, the context menu says "Date && Time" (note the double ampersand)

Razor-qt/razor-qt#340

Due to the recent change in libqtxdg where the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable is actually interpreted correctly, all the autostart desktop items in /etc/xdg/autostart don't start automatically anymore.

To solve this issue on my system I had to manually change each item in /etc/xdg/autostart (ie. lxqt-panel.desktop) from

OnlyShowIn=Razor;

to

OnlyShowIn=LXQt;

I guess this needs to be changed in all the *.desktop files, right?

Razor-qt/razor-qt#569

Buttons must be same sized as icon, and not bigger, I think. This is reference panel without quicklaunch buttons:

I noted some UI glitches about panel sizing.
Currently the height of the panel seems to be determined by its content.
When I open a new window, a new task button is created in the panel.
Then, the icon and text of the task button may have more height than the panel itself, this causes automatic resize of the panel and the height of the panel grows.
When I close the window, the task button is removed from the panel.
The max height of the remaing plugins is smaller. So the panel is again resized with its height shrinked, causing fluctuation of panel height and visual disturbance.

How to reproduce:

1. close all windows, add mainmenu, desktopswitch, pulseaudio, and calendar to the panel.
2. Use fusion-qt4 style.
3. open a new window, the height of panel may grow sometimes
4. close the window again, then the height of the panel shrinks.

Maybe we should set the height of the panel manually?

To workaround a previous issue with the GTK tray icon (issue #23) this change has been committed: e8c32dc

More recently I have noticed that the tray icon of a GTK3 application (Audacious) on my system is not drawn correctly, see below. The tray icon my GTK2 application (xpad) was drawn correctly, until I ported it from GTK2 to GTK3. The status icon became corrupted too.

Do you know how to resolve this issue?

Im writing a theme for LXQT and found that the link in the VolumePopup doesnt accept CSS styles, so it will always be blue and underlined. This is a bug with QLabel and richtext.

From the aestetic point of view this is ugly.

Maybe it must be a button?

When I try to add widgets like menu or volume, nothing happens.
The message
"Cannot load library /usr/lib/lxqt-panel/libmainmenu.so: (liblxqt-globalkeys.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)"
appears.
There is no liblxqt-globalkeys.so.0 on my computer, but liblxqt-globalkeys-qt5.so.0
A symbolic link to this (and liblxqt-globalkeys-ui-qt5.so.0) makes the panel crash with segfault.
I cannot find a package lxqt-globalkeys containing the missing files in the repository.

Razor-qt/razor-qt#107

Reproduce:

1. Have a panel with a task manager widget.
2. Change the configuration of task manager to only show icons.
3. Add a second panel.
4. Remove the second panel.

Now the task manager has it's default configuration again (showing icons and text). The same observation can be made with the Date-and-Time widget, so it looks like the configuration of the widgets is reset when another panel is removed.

We need a way to develop new plugins outside lxqt-panel source tree.
So we can have more 3rd party plugins in the future.
Developing new plugins also becomes easier if that's possible

Hey folks, great project!
Within the block "if USE_QT5"
the "find_package(Qt5LinguistTools REQUIRED QUIET)" statement is contained twice.

The error is as follows:

Should you need more information I will provided it but I guess it's something to do with the split-up you made and you can fix it real quick.

Cheers!

I use Linux as my daily OS, and want to use LXQt for my DE, but I cannot because the panel's task-bar does not support the ICCCM UrgencyHint (see link below):

http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.2.4

This is important to users like me, because I must respond in a timely manner to customers who are instant messaging me, or when an e-mail arrives.

"The UrgencyHint flag, if set in the flags field, indicates that the client deems the window contents to be urgent, requiring the timely response of the user. The window manager must make some effort to draw the user's attention to this window while this flag is set. The window manager must also monitor the state of this flag for the entire time the window is in the Normal or Iconic state and must take appropriate action when the state of the flag changes. The flag is otherwise independent of the window's state; in particular, the window manager is not required to deiconify the window if the client sets the flag on an Iconic window. Clients must provide some means by which the user can cause the UrgencyHint flag to be set to zero or the window to be withdrawn. The user's action can either mitigate the actual condition that made the window urgent, or it can merely shut off the alarm."

Once this option is offered in the lxqt-panel, I will be able to use LXQt as my DE full-time.

Thanks!

In the "task manager" panel, one can scroll through the applications using the mouse wheel. However it uses the order in which applications were launched and not the order they are shown in the panel (the user can reorder them), this is confusing. Using the PPA on Ubuntu 14.04.

The commit 7054ed1 for RGBA has no effect in my ArchLinux system. However, it breaks our FreeBSD support. What does this commit does? I did not notice any effect in my arch.
In FreeBSD, the panel became black. The regression bug is introduced after this commit. (See the attached screenshot)
Please fix it. Thanks!

This is a cleanly built lxpanel from the latest git HEAD (qt 4.8.5 is in use).
I tested it on a newly installed archlinux system.
The panel size is not correct no matter how I adjust the iconSize.

Tracing the code revealed that in RazorPanel::realign(), sizeHint() returns wrong height which is much bigger than the really needed height.

I've no idea what causes the problem.
The bug is not 100% reproducible everytime.
Just kill lxqt-panel, and restart it again. Repeating this kill/restart operation for many times, and then this will happen randomly.

Hello, I am having this weird issue with lxqt-panel in i3 window manager. They work great together otherwise, but as soon as the 'start' button is clicked, i3 crashes. If I tell i3 to restart right away, it's fine, and the start menu even remains open and functions as expected. If I ignore it for a few seconds though, X just locks up and I have to kill it. I've verified this on multiple distros (Debian & Arch)

I have a big weird debug log from i3 that I can attach if needed (it's quite big though and not sure if you need it) In all the time I've used i3, I've never seen anything crash it except for this panel (started having other crashing issue with razor-panel a few months back)

Any idea whats going on? I suspect it's having something to do with a window hint of the start menu that i3 doesn't like.. I do have xfce4-panel working just fine with it's start menu (although if I try to align the xfce panel vertically to the left or right of the screen, the panel crashes.. i3 doesn't like vertical docks and officially says they are not yet supported)

If this is what is going on with the start menu on lxqt-panel, can someone point me in the right direction for where to change the window type of the start menu to attempt to make these things work?

Maybe I'm way off though, are there any i3 users in here? =)

Hi,

Recently I have noticed that two GTK3 applications (Audacious and Xpad) who both use a GtkStatusIcon have the status icon working in the systray (all functionality works), but the icon itself is transparent / invisible.

Before I thought that GTK3, the applications, theme, or Arch environment might be to blame, but maybe it is an lxqt-panel issue.

Please read the bugreport which I started at Audacious for details and a screenshot.
http://redmine.audacious-media-player.org/issues/422

Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue?

Volume control plugin doesn't work properly.
Besides,default pulse audio device selection could be added to right click menu.
Thank you.

FTBFS introduced in ed5082b
build fine with Qt 5

/qt4/plugin-quicklaunch/lxqtquicklaunch.cpp: In member function ‘virtual void LxQtQuickLaunch::dropEvent(QDropEvent*)’:

I have a special executable of Firefox, for example, in a local directory. When I drop the executable on the Quick Launch, it creates a huge button with the executable's path instead of using the 'default missing app icon'. See also #30.

Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit, panel version: 0.7.0+bzr577+201405240832~ubuntu14.04.1

While trying to implement NETWM icon geometry for the task bar buttons, I noted that there is a problem.
In LxQtPanel, there are a lot of places emit realigned() is called, and in some places only realign() is called and the signal is not emitted. This caused some inconsistency.
When you setPosition() or setLength(), only "emit realigned()" is called, but the panel is not yet resized, so in Plugin::realign() the panel is still in its old geometry. However, in showEvent(), realigned() is trigerred after calling realign(), so when Plugin::realign() is called, the panel is already in its new geometry and that causes inconsistency.
What's the state of the panel when Plugin::realign() is called? prepared to resized and repositioned and have the old state, or it's already realigned?

What if I want to do something AFTER the panel is already realigned and its geometry is already changed? How can I ensure that?
I tried to install a timer in Plugin::realign() but that's not reliable since I'm not sure when will the panel really get its new state after realign() is called.

lxqt-panel is already able to create multiple panels on multihead systems without requiring a top edge to be aligned, something tint2 and lxpanel cannot do.

With multiple displays and many windows open, having task bars that show every window on all displays may be redundant and too busy.

An option to allow for task bars to only show windows on the same monitor as the task bar (like in lxpanel) resolves this.

This would allow lxqt-panel to arguably be the best multihead panel available.

If my panel is restarted, or has just started up normally, then the date and time widget doesn't display the time centred in the panel, but offset to the left so that the left most digit is not fully visible.

Once I change the settings, it doesn't matter which settings, and I can even change them back immediately, then it is placed correctly.

lxqt-panel starts but doesn't appear. Log:

The dialog says there is a active instance of a widget even after it's removed.
