Get the different Onglets (terminal) on the bottom line

[pingou]

I though it would be nice to have the different onglet "Terminal X" in the same line than the "Guake!"
I think it would save place on the screen.

Should it be made optionnal ?

I have been briefly looking through the code but I have not find my way. Could you give me any hints ?

Thanks

Hehehe, the "Onglet" word confused me, but after a quick research I think you mean "Tab" =)

I was thinking in fill tabs with the same info that gnome-terminal uses in title bar, but I'm not sure if it will fit on tabs properly.

I realize that Terminal X doesn't say anything important to the user, but we have the rename option that can be used to identify what is running in each tab.

I think we need something working before decide if it's a good or a bad idea =)

You can start looking at the Guake.add_tab in guake.py method. The tab counter is the self.tab_counter. If you fall in any problem, please post here.

Yes it was my first though but I saw in the code that tab is also used for something else (can't remember what though...)

Depends probably on how large are the tab...

But that's not exactly what I meant, I attached here a small picture of what I was thinking.

I'll let you know ;-)

That does not really handle the properties of localization, does it ?

Thanks for your help

How it could look :)

Have you tried the 0.3 version of guake? it has a differente tab system, I think it looks better then the version you're running.

Indeed, it contains what I was thinking of :)

I liked the old one with the small border around... but that one looks nice too.

I already had a small bug but I'll see what I can do about it, else I'll create a new bug here.

Thanks for your help :) I close this ticket
