Re: GWorkspace ddbd problem

[Andreas Höschler]

Hello all,

Respondingto my own question. I had a dubios rm -rf $GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT/Library/ddbd in my home dir. After removing this direcctory, GWorkspace came up with no problem. In Preferences I said to use thumbnails. Is  this supposed to show small icons for each file in the browse rlike on MAcOSX? if so this does not work or me. I am starting the whole system with 

exec /opt/GNUstep/System/Tools/etoile_system 

in /etc/dt/config/Xinitrc.CSWazalea now. EtoileMenuServer.app comes up a presents this very beautiful (Mac like) menu bar. However, the menu of GWorkspace is still a vertical one. Is there some way to get that into the menu bar? My settigs for GSAppKitUserBundles are

NSGlobalDomain GSAppKitUserBundles '(
"/opt/GNUstep/System/Library/Bundles/Camaelon.themeEngine",
"/opt/GNUstep/System/Library/Bundles/EtoileMenus.themeEngine"
)'

and I hoped this would do the trick, but it does not. If I use 

defaults write NSGlobalDomain GSAppKitUserBundles '("/opt/GNUstep/System/Library/Bundles/Camaelon.themeEngine", "/Library/SmartObjects/Bundles/WildMenus.themeEngine")'

then I get a horizontal menu, but WildMenus covers the EtoileMenu completely. I guess I should not use WildMenus.themeEngine  anymore. What am I missing?

Thanks a lot!

Regards,

Andreas
