New in HiberNation Apr 4, 2012 (Apr 5, 2012)

  • Added prelight buttons to xfwm
  • Changed default panel from vertical to horizontal. (Since most people use Horz)
  • Note of Interest:
  • In .../HiberNation/gtk-2.0/Panel folder there are two horz and two vert panels
  • you may choose any you wish by renaming the one you want it panel-bg.png
  • Or...
  • Right click empty spot on your panel, select > Panel >Preferences >Appearance tab >Style >Background image >File and choose any panel, kicker, etc .png that
  • you wish. I have an old folder around called Kickers from back in KDE 3.5 that
  • has numerous choices from gnome to kde to lxde panels that I choose from
  • whenever I get bored with a certain look.
  • Even if you use default configuration and if you use any kind of compositing
  • the panel looks way better if you link back to it from xfce4 panel preferences
  • options. Try it, you will like it!
