Keep dynamic System Prefs panels available at all times
Authored by: slytle on May 20, '03 04:58:17PM

Does anyone know of a way to get them to show up without hardware attached? I would like to learn more about inkwell without having to get a tablet quite yet...

Wow first attempt worked.

Add the line <string>com.apple.preference.ink</string> to the array with key TB Item Identifiers in the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist

The start System Preferences (it is probably best to do this with System Preferences not running as Cocoa does not always flush the preferences when they are changes and may do it on app shutdown).

Quit System Prefs.

Edit ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Go to
-> Root
--> NSToolbar Configuration com.apple.PrefsToolbar
---> TB Item Identifiers
Replace two of the available strings (e.g com.apple.preference.network and com.apple.preference.startupdisk)
with com.apple.preference.ink and com.apple.preferences.Bluetooth

Restart System Prefs.
