RE: RE: [DQSD-Users] Web button graphics (attached)
Hi Alec, Just curious, with this discussion of wasting space on the taskbar ... I have DQSD setup on a separate toolbar that I normally have docked at top of screen as the second row of a toolbar whose first row is a folder containg shortcuts to programs I frequently use. The toolbar is set to autohide and always_on_top. Does anybody else do this?Mine is setup on the left side of my taskbar, which is two rows high. Since I use it mostly for testing code (vbscript and _javascript_) and as a utility/debug window (mostly for string manipulations), it has to be multiline and several rows tall in order for the text to be able to return carriage returns. With "2" taskbar rowsit provides enough room for3 lines of text inDQSD: Lots of room for a graphic of just about any size to replace the word "Search":-) (and for an icon to replace the menu chevron too)Then maybe it's something people would likethe option of, even if most don't use it. Here's a shot of what it looks like with the 'DQSD Icon' in the search bar:Regards,Shawn K. Hallhttp://ReliableAnswers.com/'// Lawyer: a cat who settles disputes between mice. CAP2.JPGCAP3.JPG

How does changing the word Search with a graphic of the same size increase the amount of space used?

Re: [DQSD-Users] Web button graphics (attached)
As long as you can hide it, like you can with the word 'Search', then I guess it is not a problem. I just don't understand why anyone would want to have part of their taskbar wasted on a graphic that doesn't do anything.

Shawn, The way I think it works is that the web server has a script that pulls from CVS every 15 minutes or so. So if you CVS it as favicon.ico, the web page will get it automagically.

Hi John, Where is it supposed to show on the web site? It should be at http://www.dqsd.org/favicon.ico When you bookmark the page with IE, Mozilla or Opera it should use that file as the icon. Strange - I pushed the file. In my local CVS repository it says it's current with the server copy. I just checked it via the web-interface though ( http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dqsd/dqsdweb/ ) and it isn't there. Very strange. Regards, Shawn K.
