I suggest a tray application rather than kicker applet.
Why a tray application?
I do not like the knetworkmanager plasmoid in KDE4.
- I think a panel applet will take unnecessary place from the panel, take excess memory.
- Also a tray icon can be configured to be hidden, not shown while the applet is always visible.
- Also the applet may not be well adapted to various kicker configurations and placement
- A buggy applet may cause a kicker crash (unlike a tray app)
- In a case of any kicker crash or restart, the applet also will be killed
- Some people may not use kicker at all. There are multiple KDE3 docks such as ksmoothdock and kooldock. Also there is a separate application ktray that allows to display tray content without any panel.
As an example, ksmoothdock: http://storage9.static.itmages.ru/i/12/0208/h_1328714170_3730451_27d857649c.... Kicker is not the only way to work with KDE3. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org
