taskbar with labels hidden
SUMMARY
When there are a lot of windows, the label (window title) is hidden when the
room for it is small.
However, the current threshold for hiding the labels is too high for me. I
would like an option to lower that threshold.
Currently it is hardcoded in taskmanager/package/contents/ui/code/layout.js:
// Returns the number of 'm' characters whose joint width must be available in
the task button label
// so that the button text is rendered at all.
function minimumMColumns() {
return tasks.vertical ? 4 : 5;
}
I would like it configurable to as low as 1.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open many windows
2. Watch the task manager.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
Labels are hidden despite there are still some space left, as the screenshot
shows.
EXPECTED RESULT
Provide an option to display the label as long as one character can fit in.
This is especially useful when I have a lot of windows with names
distinguishable at the first or second character, such as terminals or
(dolphin) folders.
