0.9.0

Changelog

• Organize theme.json for better readability & changed its format to JSONC (for comments)
• Move the error reporter to a separate file
• Simple app reordering with drag and drop
• Improve menu styles a bit (fix icon margin and arrow sizes)
• Add Task Manager icon to menu
• Common class for taskbar buttons (TaskbarBaseButton)
• Custom widget plugins with Python! Place them into the plugins folder.

Plugins

Custom widget plugins are made with Python. I included a few example widgets on the plugins folder: restart_explorer, separator, open_config and volume_mixer. To use custom assets within the plugin, place them in the assets folder of the program. A Python interpreter does not need to be installed, as the program is already made with Python. To add custom widget plugins to a skin, edit the skin's layout.json and add them to the layout.

Important

Plugins are regular Python code running with the same permissions as taskbarPlus.
Only install plugins from sources you trust, because they can run commands and access your system.
