I've already completely removed gnome-panel in favor of just Gnome-Do and Docky. Don't see the appeal in Unity. Looks like my gnome-panel setup used to: skinny left bar with Talika window list plugin. I don't see the need to have panels to go all the way across a screen dimension anymore.
- technomancy 16y agoAll I use gnome-panel for is the wifi applet and the the load monitor. I make it auto-hide and bind a key to show it in order to save screen space. But I don't see the appeal of Docky over gnome-panel--isn't it just for launching programs? xbindkeys is way better for that.
- metamemetics 16y agoi use it just as a windowlist autohiding on bottom to show open programs. I like the UI\feel more than a panel extending across the whole screen. Also, the clock docklet is better than the default gnome-panel system clock. I also really enjoy the Timer docklet as well. I open new programs with Gnome DO by typing and do not pin stuff to it.
- old-gregg 16y agoI spent like an hour trying to figure out how to bind a hotkey to show the panel (when it's auto-hidden). How did you do that?
