Re: [DQSD-Users] DQSD and Windows XP SP2

Hi Mitchell,
OK I figured it out. Because I have 3 monitors when the task bar is on the 
bottom in its standard position its way too wide, I can hardly reach over to get 
to the Quick Launch. >> works with Dave's. But  I have the task bar set 
vertically on the left side of the screen and in that case the >> is not at the 
bottom of the search window. Bug?
Ah, I see... Actually, I think that's a feature :)
Whether the >> (chevron?) is displayed or not is controlled by the 
showbutton and clocklongwidth settings, as per:

/*  Show the menu '>>' popup button?
 *  0 = never
 *  1 = always
 *  2 = if search bar width is greater than clocklongwidth [default]
 */
showbutton = 2;
I suspect it works this way in order not to steal input space from 
people who have the taskbar docked vertically, like yourself.

Anyway, you can always set showbutton to 1 in your localprefs.js, or 
just use F1 while in the search window, to popup the menu.

Hope that helps,
Kim

Title: Message



Michael,
 
in 
your local preferences do you have showbutton set? It may be that it's still at 
the default of 2 (only show if search bar is greater than clocklongwidth. Try 
setting it to 1.
 
/*  Show the menu '>>' popup button? *  0 = 
never *  1 = always *  2 = if search bar width is 
greater than clocklongwidth [default] */showbutton = 
1;

It actually works here, without any reg-hacks whatsoever, so I'm curious if
this could be another problem...

I don't mind the reg-hack per se, either; it's the concomitant loss of protection that
bothers me.

RE: [DQSD-Users] DQSD and Windows XP SP2

2004-09-07 Thread Paul

Please don't take me for a turncoat. I use Dave's, and not the two products I'm about
to mention--but for your dad, the Google Deskbar (I don't mean the Google taskbar) and
the Firefox browser each have a least *a little* of the functionality of dqsb. Perhaps
one of those would be "slick" enough to appeal to Dad.
