New release : QuickBar 2.0 coming up!

New features include:

- New Swype dynamics
  * Swipe up to switch lists
  * Swipe down to hide the quickbar
- added scrolling
- added minor tweaks to improve functionality with rotation


IMPORTANT: In case any apps that you launch do not show up, please send the files you find in
   /home/user/.config/GiuliettaSW

to

users.giulietta@gmail.com

 COMPATIBLE WITH UNRESTRICTED-SYSUI BY coderus;
 but currently requires reorganizing plugins layout, see here for
 an example: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1363317&postcount=54

IMPORTANT #2:

FasterN9 might affect reactivity of the app (TBC). If you have FasterN9 installed, laggish appearing of QuickBar might happen.



QuickBar is a status bar "functional augmenting" app, and is meant to provide access to the last 15 (from homescreen) used apps , as well as to the apps configured in the QuickLaunch Bar directly from the status bar screen!

Please post any issues you might find / improvement suggestions here, the app is far from perfect, either here or post at [email]users.giulietta@gmail.com[/email]

Process name  (usefull for killing): lancia

NOTE : Currently it supports home screen entries of type "Application" only; "Link" type apps will be shown as browser (known issue)
