Shinybar - Windows 7 style for DockbarXNEXT VERSION: Launching indicator, mouse-over color from icon.
6/14/10 - Bugfix: Version 1.3.1Soooooooo looks like I left Shinybar Vertical at a much older, uglier state than the horizontal version. My apologies. Thanks to ~
fdelosrios for catching it.
Also, I honestly, really actually am working on 1.4. It'll get released eventually. Maybe even within two years.
1/22/10 - Version 1.3See the layered look around the Blue Orb? That tells you how many windows you have running. It's also the most significant update for Shinybar 1.3.
Version 1.4 should add a launching indicator, and might be the last version. Note that Shinybar is CC'd, so you can modify it to your heart's content if you leave the README intact.
10/3/09 - Version 1.2Somewhat minor update to version 1.2. Added support for panels along the top or either side, as well as very light colored panels. The active window used to turn white, which wasn't showing up so well. See README for details.
9/6/09 - ForgotForgot to include the panel background in the lastest update. Thanks to !
tunasammich for catching that

Thank you so much everyone!
In other news, Shinybar has been updated to version 1.1
Changes include rounded corners, tweaked mouseover effect, and overall polishing. See CHANGELOG for the full list.
9/4/09 - Initial releaseI've been trying to make a Windows 7-style theme for
DockbarX, Windows 7 style icon-only taskbar for Linux.
It really isn't any use to you unless you use Linux, and more specifically
GNOME. Might be interesting to peruse the code or pixmaps anyway. I dunno.
InstallationSee the included README.txt.
NotesYou can change the color of the mouseover effect by changing the Active Color setting under DockbarX's Properties.

plz give easiest ways
fortunately I was able to get around this by simply commenting out the line
bg_pixmap[NORMAL] = "panel_bg.png"
by changing it to
#bg_pixmap[NORMAL] = "panel_bg.png"
in gtk.rc which is generally at "/usr/share/themes/THEME_NAME/gtk-2.0/gtk.rc" where THEME_NAME is the name of you theme you are using for your controls
Then simply reload the theme (the easiest way is to just switch to another theme and then switch back)
I hope this is helpful to some people.
I found this fix through this related bug [link] if anyone is curious.
Thanks.
Thanks mate!
Let me know if it works.
Note that it's still optimized for a 62 pixel taskbar, as well as a 3/2 icon aspect ratio. It'll get blurry if you set it to anything else.
Thanks again!
Hah. Kidding.
Anyway, you're welcome. Glad you like it.
Also, the vertical bar is supposed to be 62 pixels. Feels huge, but that's what Windows 7 looks like.
