Year of the Code Monkey
Because Jonah Bishop Said So
Googlebar Lite 4.1 is currently waiting for four translations to come in. After they arrive, it will be made available for download. When that will be, I cannot say (hopefully soon). There are, as of this writing, a total of 10 bug fixes going in to this next release, several of which are fairly major. For the curious, here is the list of fixes as they appear in my change log:
- The search modifier keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Enter, Shift+Enter, Ctrl+Shift+Enter) were not working.
- The “Remember last combined menu search type” option was not being correctly applied to searches performed from the search box using the keyboard.
- The “Use custom Google News domain” option was not working properly.
- The search box in the Noia theme did not render correctly.
- Toggling the combined search or up buttons caused the toolbar’s height to change in some cases.
- The search box now uses a reasonable height when placed on a toolbar with large icons.
- When Googlebar Lite was dragged to the customize toolbars dialog, the resulting widget was improperly sized. The new widget now also makes use of a new icon.
- The customize widget became invisible when dragged into the customize toolbar using the Noia theme.
- Corrected some translation errors in the Catalan (ca-ES) translation.
- Corrected some corrupt strings in the French (fr-FR) translation.
The first three in the list seem pretty major to me. Almost all of the skinning bugs were found tonight, and their resolved status should please some people. With any luck, version 4.1 will be a much more stable release.

Excellent. I can’t wait!
If it by any chance is the swedish translation that is running late, feel free to give me a holler and I’ll translate it for you.

The Swedish translation is indeed one of the translations I’m waiting on, Mono. Thanks for volunteering.
