Hello all,
![[Q]](engine/grafts/newdefault/images/qq.png "Click to quote this passage; Click again to jump to bottom")
well, I have been inactive for a while. Very busy at the moment. But right now I am at home again, and decided to give my workstation a new look, like everyone does every now and then.
I always wanted a nice way to combine Awn with the Gnome panel.
Until Awn finds a nice way to support this, I created my own solution. It is not very automatic at the moment, but it work.
Maybe someone has a better solution, but I will post mine:

Until Awn finds a nice way to support this, I created my own solution. It is not very automatic at the moment, but it work.
Maybe someone has a better solution, but I will post mine:
Step 1: create 1 or 2 gnome panels and start Awn
Step 2: start a script that show a picture that looks like the Awn bar, so it suggests an "expanded" Awn bar:
Step 3: move the gnome panels over the "picture" application
Maybe I please some other users with this...
