Hi Sigmund

I guess if we all agreed on everything, things would be pretty boring!

this is gorgeous, so customizable, i love it. its helped me tweaked many little desktop things that bug me.

only thing though im having trouble tweaking, how can i change the menu button? i liked the old default lupu puppy button but i've had trouble figuring out how to set it back without going hunting for the picture currently in use and just replacing it with a symlink

The menu-button is a part of the icon-themes. It is located in /usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps/start-button.png. When you change icon-theme it will be overwritten by the menu-button in the chosen icon-theme. See /usr/local/lib/X11/themes/

beautiful, thank you very much for this very handy program

I transformed the DuDe-0.4.pet in a sfs.
I run lucid 212.
Whenever I edit the tray with the control center, clicking on the menu button does nothing anymore.
I have to edit ~/.stardust/trays/Main_tray.rc and edit root:0 to read root:3 again.

Also I lost the lucid partview applet and the quick pet applet in the tray.
In the mean time I found how to restore the show desktop icon (and functionality)

But also the freememapplet doesn't return in the tray on a JWM restart.

Is there a problem in DuDe-0.4 or is there one in lucid?

EDIT
The situation is getting worse.
So I don't load the DuDe-.04 sfs anymore.
But now I lost freememapplet, blinky, the menu icon and quite some entries of the menu, specially in the Desktop, setup and system part.

I will have to dump the save file and start a new one to get everything back as it was.

A pity as I hoped to have with DuDe a control center for more user-friendly configuration and setting in lucid.

Hi zigbert,

For some reason resize save file doesn't show up in the utility menu using DuDE-0.4 with luci-213. resizepfile.sh still works, just doesn't show up in any menu, so I added it to favorites.

Cheers,
Jim

DuDE is not a cutting-edge project, so I will test it on Puppy 5.1 when it arrives.

Remember that DuDE does not cooperate with the existing JWM-settings. - It completely takes control.

If you find solutions of any trouble, please let us know.

I was curious about the amount of resources used for gtkdialog corners, far more than conky widgets. Seems like a lot?

11102 1090 root S 18876 2% 0 0% /tmp/yaf-splash --class=gtkdialog-splash --program=GTKDIALOG_SPLASH --center
12206 12200 root S 18240 2% 0 0% gtkdialog3 -p Corner_LeftBottom --name=cornerleftbottom
12207 12204 root S 18240 2% 0 0% gtkdialog3 -p Corner_RightTop --name=cornerrighttop
12208 12202 root S 18240 2% 0 0% gtkdialog3 -p Corner_RightBottom --name=cornerrightbottom
12209 12205 root S 18240 2% 0 0% gtkdialog3 -p Corner_LeftTop --name=cornerlefttop

EDIT:
My quick and dirty solution (I only use lefttop for pnote) Saves 53.44 mgs:

Nice.....I will use your technique to only activate the used corners.
Added to todo-list

zigbert,

Thanks, your update looks solid in Lupid-5.1.1. You continue to add nice little features.

Cheers,

Yes, it works rather stable. Some minor news, but most polishing here and there. If you have any suggestions for improvements, please share......
