I would really like some feedback from you. - what output do you get if you execute 'ptray' in terminal?

Version 0.2 is not close. - A lot to do first, and my time is limited.

Hi zigbert,

I've upgraded to lupu-004, DuDE works fine on it but has a different problem so far. This is even more serious because the Shutdown menus are broken. I have the shutdown menu set up to appear on mouse-wheel down. It appears properly, but the buttons do not respond. Same thing with the Leave selection on the Menu. However, Ctrl > Alt >Backspace executes the button action that was pressed. Exit to prompt is the ony button that executes and it apparently acts the same as Ctrl > Alt > Backspace by executing the action of the last button that was pressed.

Tray functions work properly.

EDIT: I have also installed the same dude-0.1.pet in Official 4.3.2 v3 and it is working flawlessly.

I really like the flexibility that you've built in to adjust the menus. It has always been a headache to get what you want to appear on the menus. I hope that this will be included in Puppy 5, however, playdayz has announced a feature freeze. Great work developing the pcc.

Desktop working nicely everywhere I've tried it (official, experimental, pre-alpha, etc.....). Hope it continues to stay in development.

Hey I have found some "bugs". I only call them that because i don't know what else to. But in the Pmenu when selecting clock skins, if you have a lot of them they are not all displayed and it is impossible to scroll through the list. Any movement from the mouse makes the menu disappear. So essentially I can only select those which are in the view of the screen. I posted a screen shot of it below. Notice after D32.png it is cut off and moving the mouse over it just closes the menu. I also tried using the down arrow, but it doesn't work.

This only happens when clicking the + symbols. I can of course add it the manual way but then I cannot add a particular clock skin to the global theme. How could I fix this because I very much like to change my clock skins, etc often and like a large variety. This makes the global theme option (which is a great idea and I would like to use) obsolete.

This also happens in Stardust 13.

Hi Mick

You are doing great stuff these days. Thanks alot for all your effort !!!!!

I tested the latest jwm-build in lupu, and it really improves the situation......from no transparency in menu-icons to small shades on some of them.

ha..haha!

You need to get rid of the libpixman fix... this shot is on lupu-002.. it is fixed I tells ya!

Cheers

Xmessage is showing window decorations.. can you add the stuff in .jwmrc for that please? Or not. Entirely up yo you, but I prefer to add it.

Thanks

Cheers

Ok, well as a work around I just moved some of my clock skins out of the folder for the time being. It seems on my resolution of 1024x768 I can have 30 displayed properly max.

Is there any reason I cannot type the name of the clock skin into the bar? After selecting one a file name is there but it is not possible to type it. I though perhaps if I couldn't see a skin in the menu to select it then possibly i could just enter the file name if i knew it, but alas.

Hi zigbert,

DuDE works fine on lupu-005 and lupu-006 none of the problems that were experienced with 003 & 004. So it was lupu, not DuDE.

Cheers,
Jim

Hi zigbert,

Bad news, the problem noted earlier with 003 has returned with Lucid puppy 007 and is still in 008. The PCC Desktop Trays button does not function. Also, the Edit tray button in the top mention does not work. The tray files can be edited manually. This problem occurred with a new 3fs save file created to test DuDE. Executing ptray in a console gives this error:
