Re: [gDesklets] Desklet path

[Bjoern Koch <H Humpel gmx de>]

Hi there,

sounds more than ggod to me ;).
As far as I recall I wished to have access to some desklets' basic
information when working on the IPopUp Control. Back than I wanted to be
able to display the Desklet's name in the window/requester opened by the
Control.

Not sure though how it should/could be done...

But it would be nice if a Control has all/some basic information ((by
default) about the Display by which it was called.
So I am not sure if a function and/or method would do the trick ?!

I guess we should dig deeper into the Control section of the core... :/.

Greetings, Bjoern
