  Sorry, I am a fresh man to the mail list.The question is how to create
  "Top Application in Meego Tablet".


  "Actually our design is such that we need to display a top application
  which will display wi-fi status, time etc just like status bar in
  tablet is displayed where date, time ,signal strength etc are
  displayed. How such application is designed in tablet then ? "

If you are using the Meegotouch System UI daemon(*, you could modify that to display another info in the status area/bar.

The traditional way to do that is to show a window with window type _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK, which would tell the window manager to reserve space for it from the desktop so that other windows do not come on top of it. Unfortunately, mcompositor (window manager) does not support this at the moment because the status area is drawn inside applications themselves, using a shared pixmap from the System UI daemon.

Perhaps the easiest way is to replace the window manager to something more traditional.

    I don't know, as I don't know what "same question" you have.
    Please elaborate and just ask. :)
