<p>Replicants are small self-contained parts of applications that can be integrated into other programs. Provided Deskbar's option to <span class="menu">Show Replicants</span> is activated, you'll recognize a replicantable part of an appliction by its small handle, normally in the bottom right corner:</p>
|
||||
<img src="../images/gui-images/replicant.png" alt="replicant.png" />
|
||||
<p>The most prominent place that accepts Replicants is the Desktop: You simply drag&drop the little handle onto it. From now on it's part of the Desktop and the Replicant's originating app doesn't have to be started for it to work.<br />
|
||||
A right-click on a Replicant handle offers a context menu to show the originating app's <span class="menu">About</span> window and to <span class="menu">Remove Replicant</span>.</p>
|
||||
<p>Examples for replicatable applications are the graphs of the <a href="applications/activitymonitor.html">ActivityMonitor</a>, the <a href="workspaces.html">Workspaces applet</a> or <a href="applications/deskcalc.html">DeskCalc</a>.</p>
