Guest hmhm Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Hello, I've just finished installing Mandrake 10.0 and the topic at hand is my only 'problem' so far, which indicates how happy I am with this Linux flavour because it isn't really a big issue. Now, the KDE taskbar shows all current tasks, but rather than indicating the active one with a 'pushed in' button and all the others with a 'pushed out' button, is does somehow fade the text on the buttons, i.e. active button is bold and the task I used the longest time ago is only faintly readable. Is there a way to make this go away and have the 'in-or-out' solution? Many thanks, hmhm [moved from Software by spinynorman - welcome aboard :)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter11 Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Mandrake 10.0 was quite a long ago. You'd better install some newer stuff if your computer can handle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reiver_Fluffi Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Try experimenting with different control styles (these can be found in the menu somewhere under "look n feel", don't ask me where though.....). It's possibly that particular QT theme that apply's that style to the taskbar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gannin Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 If you're using the default Mandriva menu setup, then try going to Menu > System > Configuration > Configure Your Desktop. Then, with the window that comes up, go to LookNFeel > Style, and try using the different styles listed there. You can find more at http://www.kde-look.org/.

solarian Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 wow, 10.0 is pretty ancient, hmhm there have been 3 Mandrake/Mandriva versions since then welcome to mandrivausers.org! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
congdonb Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 hmhm, Upgrading to Mandriva 2006 will not change this default behavior as I have the same issue with Mandriva 2006 KDE desktop install where buttons for open tasks are not pushed in or out as you desire but text is bolded for active task item. Maybe some of the solutions previously mentioned or a desktop theme change could change this for you?? -Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Mine aren't pushed in or out either, and I'm using KDE 3.5 on Arch. I think it's just a KDE feature or it's a feature of the theme you're using as congdonb mentions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
