Dynamic Karamba Bar
-------------------------------
This bar uses KDE links in a specified directory to generate a kicker-like buttonbar.
If the zoom is too slow because of your hardware (or my dirty python skills ;) ) disable it in the configuration (set "smoothZoom" to 0).
Middle-click the bar to open the folder containing the links. The links are sorted by name.
If anybody has other bar backgrounds, please send them to me! I will include them.
ScreenShot #1:
Plain DynBar with xmms controls enabled.
ScreenShot #2:
AddOns enabled in DynBar.theme.
ScreenShot #3:
xmms controls expanded (mouseOver)
SuperKaramba 1.17j is needed!!
Read the README and change the values in the script to suit your needs.
And please let me know what you think and how it works!!!

Version 3.6:
Changes in the xmms control addon, still not very functional though.
Version 3.5:
Different image sizes are now "cached" so zooming is faster now.
Version 3.4:
Variable for number of flashes at app-start added. Icons are now sorted by name!

Experimental xmms controls (enable vie script config). Using the new show/hide functions makes the bar a bit faster.

The file or folder file:/home/wizzard/Karamba/DynBar/Files/ does not exist.
I download in home/myname/tmp/karamba
did I do wrong?

I have the same problem here. Maybe its because Superkaramba 1.17j is needed which seems to be outdated.
Last update of Dynamic Bar was about two years ago...
Can anybody tell?

Now the problem I have is that, when I hover my mouse over the little speaker thingy on the right, there is a moment where it flickers black. Any idea how to fix this?
Keep up the awesome work.

#Path to your favorite iconset and to the standard icon path
iconTheme = "/home/rsklnkv/pics/icons/crystalsvg/"
iconPath = "/home/rsklnkv/pics/icons/crstalsvg"
This is where you may need to change things. I keep most all my icons in one spot, so my path will certainly differ from yours. Yours might be in "/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/" if you use the crystal icon set on suse.
If you have no idea where your icons are kept, you may have to search for them.
The second spot to change the config is about a fourth of the way down the same config, at the lines that read :
icons.append(iconTheme+"48x48/apps/kmenu.png")
iconsBig.append(iconTheme+"64x64/apps/kmenu.png")
Again, the path to your icons will differ. This entry defines where the icon that designates the kmenu will come from, the root of which is defined by our first path.
The thing that you might want to keep in mind is that you need to have icons that are scaled to both 48x48 and 64x64.
Does this make sense? It's late:)
