Expand taskbar as required to fit contents.
I currently have this item checked because I would like to keep my taskbar only around halfway across my desktop when I dont' have any applications open, but I'd like it to expand as I open more windows so the windows aren't really small in the taskbar. However, The taskbar stays the same size for me all the time. When I open too many windows to fit, they just show up half the size as they were before to fit in the taskbar.
Can I get the window names/icons in the taskbar to stay the same size all the time and have the taskbar resize around them?
Hi, I'm using kde 3.3 and the behaviour I have is exactly what you want.
First make sure that you are using an External Taskbar and not the Taskbar Applet. You can add the External Taskbar in "Panel Menu->Add->Panel->External Taskbar" and configure it like any other panel.
I currently use the TaskBar applet and it behaves like you said. It fills all free space available but does not try to acquire more space and if the panel as a Expand to fit contents policy then it will never expand.
Thanks a bunch! this works great.
Any idea how to make it transparent? or is that not possible since it isn't themain taskbar?
