Gnome-Pie is a circular application launcher for Linux. It is made of several pies, each consisting of multiple slices. The user presses a key stroke which opens the desired pie. By activating one of its slices, applications may be launched, key presses may be simulated or files can be opened.
Fixes on 0.5.1 Release:
- support for slice labels, activated by default, with a selected theme-related look, adding proper navigation and easy discoverability of apps running in GNOME-Pie (slice labels can be disabled under GNOME-Pie appindicator-->Preferences-->top bar's General Settings-->uncheck Display Slice labels)
- new subtle wobble effect added when navigating through slices (available on all themes)
- improved sub-pies navigation
- various minor changes
- Fixed wrong preview for minimalistic text theme
- Fixed pies opening at opposite screen side when activating a sub pie for the first time
- Fixed not-clickable trigger-select-button in preferences menu
To install Gnome-Pie on Ubuntu/Linux Mint open terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy the following commands in the Terminal:
