Hi,

Crystal Dock v2.2 is out now!

What it is: Crystal Dock is a cool dock (desktop panel) for Linux desktop, with the focus on attractive user interface, being simple and easy to use, and cross-desktop support.

The current version (version 2.x) supports KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland. Other desktop environments will be considered when they run on Wayland and provide sufficient APIs.

Change log:

New features:

  • New 3D style: reminiscence of Sun’s Project Looking Glass and Apple’s Mac OS X Leopard/Lion. This feature comes as default but can be turned on/off from the dock’s context menu. Also this only applies to a dock in bottom position of the screen, for aesthetic reasons.

Bugs fixed:

  • Fixed a bug where task indicator does not change from ‘active’ to ‘inactive’ if the new active window is the dock itself.

    I tend to stick with Plasma’s own panels but I’ll give this one a spin over the weekend. From the looks of it, it has quite the set of options, which is always fun to tinker with 🙂. Thanks for sharing this.
