A new bug-fix version has been released for the 3.1 series! (v 3.1.2)

How to install it: http://www.glx-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=Accueil&lang=en#0-Installation

e.g. for Ubuntu users: launch these commands from a terminal
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cairo-dock-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ## if Cairo-Dock is already installed
sudo apt-get install cairo-dock cairo-dock-plug-ins ## if Cairo-Dock is not installed
(our PPA and our repositories for Debian and Ubuntu have been updated)

Feel free to share this news (and screenshots, screencasts, etc.)

Detailed ChangeLog
  • Core: [by Fabrice Rey & Matthieu Baerts]
    • Dialogues Mgr:
      • cairo_dock_set_dialog_message (used by Help): used markup if it's needed
      • Fixed 2 bugs when an icon holding a modal dialog is destroyed
    • GUI:
      • Search for an icon path if the module gives us only the name of its icon (e.g. Deluge, Transmission, Menus)
      • Simple: Behavior: Position of the taskbar: 'After a given icon' choise was missing
    • Icon Mgr: removed a now useless static mutex
    • Init:
      • Initialised threads on new versions of GLib (>= 2.24)
      • This should finally fix a crash when opening Logout menu
    • Help: Used markup for the dialogues
    • Menu: Quit with a Cairo-Dock session: check if it's really the shift key which is used to unlock the quit menu entry

  • Plug-ins: [by Fabrice Rey & Matthieu Baerts]
    • Clock: If seconds are not shown, redrawn the applet each time at 00 second (before the timer wasn't started with a delay and the applet was redrawn between 00 and 60 seconds)
    • GMenu: Editor: also check if 'menulibre' is available
    • RSSreader:
      • Make the text selectable in the dialog
      • Fixed incorrect duration of the dialog when no URL/connection
    • MusicPlayer: if the music player has given a wrong .desktop filename, check if it's a valid name before doing something more
    • Status-Notifier:
      • When the icon theme changes, remove the previous one first
      • Position of the Menu: e.g. with Dropbox: the menu is out of the screen every time something has changed in this menu (it displays 'connecting', free space available, etc.) -> we need to reposition it.
      • Fixed lots of corner cases (mainly for Skype)
      • Added full support of the Ubuntu indicator application API, for program that only use this one (and not the standard Status-Notifier API), like Skype
      • Implemented an horrible hack for Skype (it only creates its item when the host appears, not if the host already exists)
      • Updated the property HasStatusNotifierHostRegistered to IsStatusNotifierHostRegistered
      • Check for item unicity on creation (fixes the Skype double item)
      • E.g. with Dropbox, the menu is firstly drawn out of the screen and then it's ok
    • Misc.:
      • CMakeLists.txt: DBusMenu GLib and GTK are needed for Indicator-Applet

  • Third-Party applets: [by Fabrice Rey & Matthieu Baerts]
    • GTG:
      • Supported both old (0.2) and new (0.3) versions
      • Handle the case where we receive the child before its parent
      • Used the GTG icons from the icon theme if available
      • Tried to reconnect to GTG when building the menu if it's not connected (if GTG is installed after or has been launched with a delay at startup
    • MintMenu: updated to match the latest version of MintMenu (that uses mateapplet instead of gnomeapplet)
