#3 seems to make the most sense. using a trash icon resembles deleting files too much. and pulling out of the stack would make more sense to either move the file or create new link where it is dragged.

I implemented this in the lastest release. Only I need to implement that the dialog "restructures" on a clear, because for now, you first have to close & open the dialog to see the result.

I get this now when activating the stack applet:

 

  File "/usr/lib/awn/applets/stacks/stacks.py", line 668, in __init__
    os.mknod(self.backend_uri.path)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

ah it looks like the ~/.config/awn/stacks directory didn't get executable permissions when created:

Thanks for pointing out this bug. In future builds this will not be a problem.

ryancr said:
Not sure how hard this would be, but since were going to have a right click menu, would it be possible to have a "Open With.." like the current right click menu in gnome.

I might look into it when other things are more stable. It depends on what bindings gnome provides.

Just want to say good job. Much, much more stable and faster than the previous incarnation.

Yeah ditto, I am very happy with this new version.

I will try to fix it:
it's about the config path:
~/.config/awn/stacks/<some number>

Can you tell me if the dir "~/.config/awn/stacks" exists?
If you create that one manually I guess it should fix your problem.

- alt-dragging a file on to the stack doesn't create a link to the file, is there an other way?

Just play with your "modifier keys". For me, it is CRTL+ALT+SHIFT -> drag to create a link. Watch the tiny mouse-icon.

SilentStorm said:
- There is a problem with keeping the content of in the stack up to date with the real content of the folder
after playing around with it (moving and copying some files) al the files stayed in the stack although they weren't in the folder.

I have this issue as well. I need to find out how to handle the gnomevfs uris the samen in all places. Personally I experience problems with special characters in filenames, like spaces.

SilentStorm said:
I did, tried with everything off and on, but then I noticed that when I was putting them in the off position and I reopened the preferences they were back on?

That should not happen, but does not have to do with your problem. Maybe I was not clear, but also use COMBINATIONS of your modifier keys. So, push them at the same time.

bumbleskull said:
just a guess but libgnomevfs and libgnomevfs-dev are probably dependencies and you are probably missing them

I checked here. Both are installed. Just to inform, I'm running Gutsy here.

gnomevfs.NotFoundError: Arquivo não encontrado

I committed a fix that ensures that the configuration directory (~/.config/stacks) does exist. If that is not the problem, report back to me again please.

Sorry, that was a typo.
I meaned: ~/.config/awn/stacks
I did not notice the stucture as it is now, so I will move the config dir to:
~/.config/awn/applets/stacks

* Sort .desktop icons by their Name attribute, rather than their file name.

Done, thanks for poiting that out.

StrangeQuark said:
* When a custom applet icon is chosen, resize it to the bar's size before using it.

Now that I looked into it, I saw that only on setting the empty icon, it was resized. Thanks again.

Yea for filebrowser the monitoring was causing crashes, that's why it's disabled atm.

Any plans of enabling it?

In the last time (don't know since which revision) Stacks doesn't work any more. I get the following output (and a one pixel line) when trying to add it:
