CCNET Monitor 0.9: now with Force Build

UPDATE: the latest version of the CC.NET Monitor Gadget for Vista Sidebar is v0.9.5: read more about it in 0.9.5 release notes.

Since many people asked for it, I just released a new version of the CruiseControl.NET Monitoring Gadget for Vista Sidebar adding the most requested feature: the Force Build button.

Now, in the undocked view, you can see a nice orange button on the right. Push that button to force a build for the project and the button will turn gray, meaning that the project is checking for updated or is already building.

This the list of changes:

[Issue 1] - Implement Force build
[Issue 4] - No visible update when a project is building
Project name doesn't wrap anymore in both docked and undocked view
Long project names now only take 100px in the undocked view
Tooltip with the full project name when hovering over long truncated names

You can download the new version from Google Code, or from Windows Live Gallery (before downloading make sure that the version is 0.9)

Some suggestions for the next version:

- Consider adding title attributes to the items in the SELECT when in Settings (so you get tooltips for long project names there too)

- Sorting the list of projects alphabetically.

- Remember the last dashboard URL entered, so you don't have to enter it again to add new projects.

- Be clever about only listing projects that aren't already added in the "Add Projects" page.

- All the dimensions of the gadget to be customised in settings.

thanks for the great gadget,

-dave

Dave, good points.
The last request is not easy to accomplish since the only way to achieve the glassy look and the transparency is to use background images, but the other nice enhancements.
