Xoblite bb3 RC 1 2006-01-02 10:40:47
On December 31, 2005, Xoblite has returned in its most exciting version yet. Some major changes, according to Karl himself are as follows:

# Manual positioning of all UI elements (Toolbar+Systembar+Slit) using Ctrl+Drag is now supported! Very Happy
# Numerous improvements to the built-in taskbar functionality:
- The systembar.taskbar can now swap places with the toolbar.windowLabel! Very Happy
(i.e. making it possible to place the taskbar on the toolbar a la Fluxbox)
- Taskbar button flashing is now supported (used by e.g. instant messaging applications)
- Drag'n'drop of files onto task buttons is now supported
- It is now configurable whether or not inactive task buttons should have a background drawn
- Lots of new taskbar button mouse click commands (e.g. Alt+MidClick to shade/unshade)
# Introducing a xoblite style balloon tooltips replacement - xobloon notifications! =]
# Including a new advanced sticky windows plugin - Glue! Very Happy
# Major improvements to the style parsing engine and new rendering options
- Support for the new Blackbox 0.70 style syntax (including fallback to the original syntax for optimum compatibility) Cool
- Support for dynamic resizing of the toolbar/systembar based on font size + menu marginWidths (configurable)
# Added support for menu [path] folder merging and wildcard search patterns
# Enhanced menu MidClick functionality (e.g. copy a complete bsetbg rootCommand for a wallpaper to the clipboard)
# New application environment variable ($Clipboard$) and core bro@ms (@xoblite MinimizeAll/RestoreAll)
# Apply styles by double clicking on .style files (assign extension to Blackbox.exe) or using Blackbox.exe
# Fixed the infamous/elusive crash on shutdown bug... Smile
# Updated *box API support for improved plugin compatibility (e.g. BBTaskMenu and bbIconBox)
# Further streamlining of the code (executable only 299 kB despite all new functionality)
# Online documentation (will be available later, for now read the included changes.txt for details)
# New style - solid'n'pale - in addition to the tried'n'tested xoblite bb2 styles... Wink
# Lots of major and minor bug fixes and improvements
