SearchBar Desklet
Google powered for now
Screenie
Description
This is a little desklet that might be fun (or not). You need to set to on top style and position it like in the screenshot. When you click it, the search box will come up, and will do a google search for you and display the results in a nice way to you (see screenshot).
Kudos to
- bzeitler for making the graphics

Anyone having a problem with objectbar and the search widget?
Sorry just needed to remove always on top for objectbar works great thanks ave
Next thing that Avedesk will emulate is the apple service desk....
You my friend are a machine.
Thanks! It works perfectly with objectbar!
Just a question, will there be the possibility to choose what to search in (like the firefox searchbar, except with windows search as an option as well) by clicking the progress meter or something like that?
(Sorry about the wording, I'm in a bit of a rush to get out the door).
Thanks again!
WOOOOOOOOO!! Ave does it again, Bloody excelent as always. :woot: :rock:
/mu is in awe of its simplicity yet prowess
I was just wondering if it would be able to support other seach engines like Amazon (which has a SDK avaliable methinks) to look up song titles or DVDs etc?
But other than that, its DE STIJL!!!!!
oh god, if this doesn't make me donate when I get my paycheck, NOTHING does
you sir, are amazing. I bow to you

Blimey!...I will have to use OB more and/or use a Tiger vs... bloody great stuff..I'll get you a pint of ESB in!
Very nice indeed!
Would it be possible with a flipped version for those of us who have the taskbar at the bottom? (Yes, yes I know we try to emulate osx but I for one still prefer my taskbar at the bottom and I know there are others too) If it's to complicated forgett about it, it's great anyways 
Wonderful job so far Andreas!
I have two tiny requests whenever you get back to coding for this little jewel.
I would appreciate an option to load the results in any browser. I use two and sometimes 3 browsers, as do some buddies of mine, for designing and debbuging purposes ... but I still use Internet Explorer as default in the system because certain family members that use the PC can't get used to MY default. So ya, a simple option [or maybe not so simple I don't know] to load results [or the eventual results] in a specified browser would be great.
Not all of us have the taskbar at top. I don't know if I'm jumping the gun here, but an option to have the button in any corner would be nice. Right now the button goes top right and the results will eventually drop down. but let's say we want it bottom right, then the results would pop UP from that.
That's all I got right now. Except to say thank you for ALL the work you have been doing here, not just with this, but AveDesk, the other desklets etc. It's just mind boggling to me how fast you pump these things out. I really DO think you deserve a break.
Oh and I do realise that sometimes money speaks louder than words ... my credit card is coming out of my wallet ;-)
you sir, are a genius. the only reason i stayed away from the tiger vs is because of that search button.
Great idea!! Just one question - How do you move the systray clock over to make room for the search bar?

It has to be done using content margin settings in whatever visual style you are using.
Kols windowblinds and visual styles have it moved over as does my windowblinds skin. pm me if you want info on how to edit a wb skin in skin studio to fix it.
:woot: wow real nice desklet ... my windows is lookin more and more like a mac everyday with avedesk..
thank u so much!! 
Nice desklet!
But it seems that this desklet can't search for chinese info correctly. When I input keywords in chinese, some square or crazy signs are retured to me by google.
wow!!!.....great!!...every day I'm happier with my desktop!!!! thanks!!!!!
That, my man, is t3h sex
Ave is teh l33t
Brilliant stuff Andreas...works great! keep up the good work (if humanly possible)
this is incredible!
i think, ave, your ideas are even as infinite as the possibilities avedesk 1.1 offers!
just great!
but though i'm not using tiger vs it'll need a skin 
but just great!
