<div dir="ltr">Pretty cool in my opinion, Federico! I guess that blended so nice with Lubuntu default theme... There is not an option to set opacity?<br><br>I guess we must try some, and figure it out which of them has the best cost benefit. I can help you with some basic tests...<br>
<br>And about the adoption, it dosen't have to be an official package, there is space for that. It's a good idea, many users, even those who migrated from XP are looking for an different expirience...<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<p dir="ltr">Ok folks,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'm playing a bit with others docks to see if a can recreate a good OSX environment without composite manager.<br>
I have tested Docky, Simdock and Plank. I think the last one should be the better choice because Is simple to configure via conf files, even without composite is usable and has a minimum impact, 15 mb more-less. Add launcher is quite easy too.<br>
Not have a CM means we will not have shadows or transparencies but the system will be more snappy. Note that the CPU usage is not 35% as in the screenshot but just 3%. Bad timing!</p>
