[13:57] <metalbiker> i think a nice feature to have in the DE for studio is to include the ability to have icons only panels (no big window buttons like you generally see but have it as an option)
[14:54] <OvenWerks> metalbiker: I'm not sure what you mean.
[14:58] <metalbiker> ovenwerks: hey. i just got back to my desk.
[14:59] <metalbiker> ovenwerks: let me try to explain a bit better
[15:00] <metalbiker> you know how when you open a program and you get that window bubble in the panel? 
[15:01] <metalbiker> KDE plasma has a feature that allows you to have an icons only task manager/panel. it just shows the icon of the open program and not the whole button bubble/whatever it's called these days. lol
[15:01] <metalbiker> just a neat feature to cut down on clutter.
[15:01] <OvenWerks> You mean the icon without the program name?
[15:02] <OvenWerks> uncheck show button labels?
[15:05] <OvenWerks> settings manager->Panel->Items.... select window buttons and then the little gear in the right side panel. The setup window for window buttons opens... the first button is Show button labels
[15:06] <OvenWerks> I would suggest: A) you would also want to make the panel bigger so you can see the icons better. B) you would want the panel on the side rather than the top so that after you make it bigger it doesn't take up as much room :)
[15:09] <metalbiker> YES! exactly that! so that option's already there? jeez, if i'd already known. i guess i should've tried it out first. thanks for letting me know!
[15:13] <metalbiker> ok, now i've got to leave. ugh. appointments suck.
[19:46] <ErichEickmeyer> OH snap... https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/04/ubuntu-studio-plans-to-reboot
[20:27] <OvenWerks> ErichEickmeyer: Whatever, I was going to reply to one of the comments, but it wants yet another login... aparently my ubuntu login is not good enough
[20:38] <ErichEickmeyer> OvenWerks: Yeah. This is the kind of attention we need, but it's a little quicker than I was expecting. I do my best not to read the comments, btw. Comments on those sites can range from good to not so good to downright trollish.
[21:13] <krytarik> "It’d be great to see the likes of VLC, Kdenlive and Entangle join the list of tools." - yes ok, two of those are actually there...
[21:14] <krytarik> And we are a "distort" now! :P
[21:33] <ErichEickmeyer> Gotta love spell check. :P
[22:19] <sakrecoer> krytarik: haha yes, one can wonder if OMG ubuntu ever tries what they write about when it comes to US, but hey: this way it will look like we delivered their wildest dreams!!! :)
[22:20] <sakrecoer> other than that: excellent job animating the comments ont that page ErichEickmeyer !!
[22:22] <sakrecoer> OvenWerks: it's really good to see you still tinkering and experimenting <3
[22:23] <sakrecoer> oh! and eylul is back in the channel too! \o/ very nice wallpaper and glad to know you here to transmitt that good vibe legacy!
[22:24] <krytarik> sakrecoer: First of all, didn't expect YOU being the one having pinged me now! :D  And second, nah they do this on ALL flavors.. :P
[22:25] <sakrecoer> haha :D not sure if reassured or amused. but both are ok feelings!
[22:25] <sakrecoer> krytarik: ^
[22:26] <sakrecoer> (the second point that is)
[22:27] <krytarik> I wouldn't use either of those terms for this actually - but more like "happily surprised" :)
[22:28] <krytarik> Ah ok, then yeah, but I'd go with the first option then. :P
[22:28] <sakrecoer> :D <3
[22:31] <sakrecoer> i'm hoping i might be able to check in more often now. so hopefully, there will be less of the  "surprises" element while the "happy" remains stable :)
[22:42] <krytarik> Yeah, believe with less weight on your shoulders, it should be easier to look by without feeling an obligation to also do all the things. :)
[22:46] <sakrecoer> <3 something along those lines. it also seems the universe is aligning on the other elements that were holding me back. superstitions aside, i'll touch some wood, salt my back and draw an X in the roof for it :D
[22:51] <sakrecoer> basically, i got a new job and so a potentially whole new day-today may happen. I'll work 60-80% without having to starve for it... "Time might be money, but money ain't creating no time"
[22:56] <krytarik> Yes, I see it the same. :)
