Currently when I click the show desktop button the screenlets minimize also. Is there a way to make the screenlet never minimize?

thanks.

I think if you have the the (latest) widget-plugin activated then you should be able to add a match-option like "widget!=1" to showdesktop that avoids letting widget-windows get affected by the showdesktop effect ... (though I don't know the exact option)

I, also, would like the screenlets to not minimize when I hit the Show Desktop button but I had no idea what you mean by "should be able to add a match-option like "widget!=1" to showdesktop that avoids letting widget-windows get affected by the showdesktop effect."

Can you please explain?

Go to showdesktop and add "!(widget=1)" (syntax fixed ;) ) to the match setting there.

The better option would be to disable the "Hide Skip Taskbar Windows" in the core options; it should exactly have the effect you want.

Which file shall I edit?
linux@linux:~$ locate showdesktop
/usr/share/compiz/showdesktop.xml
/usr/share/ccsm/images/plugin-showdesktop.svg
/usr/lib/compiz/libshowdesktop.so
/usr/lib/compiz/libshowdesktop.a
/usr/lib/compiz/libshowdesktop.la
/usr/lib/awn/applets/showdesktop.desktop
/usr/lib/awn/applets/showdesktop
/usr/lib/awn/applets/showdesktop/showdesktop.py
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop/allscreens
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop/allscreens/options
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop/allscreens/options/%gconf.xml
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop/allscreens/%gconf.xml
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/compiz/plugins/showdesktop/%gconf.xml
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/panel/applets/showdesktop_screen0
/home/gmhafiz/.gconf/apps/panel/applets/showdesktop_screen0/%gconf.xml


And where to add the code in that showdesktop file?

Also, where can I find "Hide Skip Taskbar Windows" in the core options?
