I think in this way even if it has the same number of items it appears less huge than with a popup menu/submenu structure. +Every items have two row, for the name and for the description, in order to make a more it more informative. On each selected item appears an action icon on the right, at the moment they are "add bookmark" on application icons and &remove bookmark &on favourite apps list. + + +The bottom buttons are the usual switch user, lock session and logout. In a first time I didn't want to put them, I tought that these function should be delegate to another applet like http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=26150 , but it seems that the multiple menus concept it's a thing that doesn't work very well in practice, it needs more real-world testing. + + +The left-most btton contains the user name and icon, and clicking on it it opens the kcm used to edit the user's profile. I know it seems silly, but It's only an experiment, probably it will be merged with the switch user button. + + + + +More &tastymenu; features + +To do + + + + + + + + +Command Reference + + +The main &tastymenu; window + + +The search field + + To do + + + + + + + + +Questions and Answers + + + + +To do + + + + + + + + + + + + +Credits and License + + +&tastymenu; + + +Program copyright 2006 Marco Martin notmart@gmail.com + + +Contributors: + +some code from Kbfx Spinx (http://www.kbfx.org) copyright (c) 2006 Kbfx team. + +dmctl.h and dmctl.c Copyright (c) 2004-2006 Oswald Buddenhagen and Stephan Kulow + +some code of the TastyListView from the statistics list view of Amarok (c) 2005-2006 Seb Ruiz + + + + + +Documentation copyright 2006 Marco Martin notmart@gmail.com + + + + +&underFDL; + + + +&underLGPL; + + + + + +Installation + + +How to obtain &tastymenu; + + + + The latest &tastymenu; sources can be found at &homepage; + + + + + +Requirements + + +In order to successfully use &tastymenu;, you need at least &kde; 3.4 (didn't tested it under older &kde; versions, but it could compile anyway). it should suffice a stock &kde; found on most distributions, without special requirements + + + +You can find a list of changes at &homepage;. + + + + +Compilation and Installation + + + + + +&install.compile.documentation; + + + + + +&documentation.index; + + + + diff --git a/doc/en/screenshot.png b/doc/en/screenshot.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..31d87c4 Binary files /dev/null and b/doc/en/screenshot.png differ -- cgit v1.2.1
