Description Sebastien 2003-08-24 16:04:41 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

Please see this picture :

If we want two row of kicker, we can "Add / Extension / Mini panel".
In this case we can consacre one panel to the taskbar/deskChooser and another to the applets.
BUT : if we want to hide a panel and now show it (or the two) it's quite difficult (try it ! ).
I propose to group the "Hide" buttons as I've faked in my picture.
Comment 1 Sebastien 2003-08-24 16:06:48 UTC
Just a comment : it must be optionnal (because we can decide to hide temporary
only the applets panel : so, do it easier).

Kicker is no more mantained and all bugs/wishes will not be fixed/implemented in KDE3. A list of the most interesting/unresolved issues which is still valid for KDE4 has been created. Before reopening old kicker bugs on KDE4 Plasma, please try the new KDE 4.3.1, check the current behaviour and, only if you find new bugs or if you need a particular feature, open a new bug report.

Remember that KDE 4 is a full rewrite of KDE 3 so some old features will not be re-implemented because the behaviour has be changed a lot on some sides.

Thanks for the comprehension and enjoy the new KDE 4!
