Making use of custom actions with Xfce Appfinder

  • May 18, 2013
  • Mike Massonnet
One addition in the latest versions of Appfinder was the custom actions. I never used it until after I started typing several times twitter which didn't work (a habit from the web browser url bar).

The custom actions can be useful for anything, and it's really quick to run it.

Examples of custom actions:
  • twitter: xdg-open https://twitter.com/
  • us: setxkbmap us
It can be very handy, check the online documention for a quick setup. There are also online examples, don't mind to leave a comment or to fill the bugtracker if you have clever ideas, I can add them, I just did with the setxkbmap us example ;-)

Stable releases!

  • May 8, 2013
  • Jérôme Guelfucci

Last week-end, our awesome Nick released new stable versions for almost all Xfce major components: libxfce4util, tumbler, xfce4-appfinder, xfce4-session, xfce4-panel, xfwm4, xfce4-settings, garcon, thunar, xfce4-terminal and tumbler (this is not amnesia, we got two releases in a single day for this component!).

I still need to release libxfce4ui 4.10.1 which would fix some keyboard shortcut issues: numpad shortcuts, shortcuts with Shift, shortcuts with Alt+Print... I need some testers for this stable branch before releasing. So grab the code on git or from this tarball and please confirm if it works fine after restarting your session. Thanks in advance for your help.

The list of changes which can be found in those stable releases in available on the Xfce Announcement mailing list. I wish you all an improved Xfce experience!

Xfce4-notifyd 0.2.4

  • May 8, 2013
  • Jérôme Guelfucci

This quick follow-up release contains a single fix contributed by "Coacher": proper border drawing when compositing is disabled (bug #10021). It also contains a few updated translations: Bulgarian, Chinese (China), Chinese (Taiwan), Flemish and Indonesian.

For the next release, I'm considering implementing (as time allows) notification filtering so that you can turn off notifications from applications which annoy you.
