Name of the component used by the Desktop for its unique identification.

can be implemented to substitute or extend the one provided, but the
name must not be changed, to allow the Desktop to identify the component
as the task area. |

baseHotKey |
The part of the key combination that can be used to switch
between active tasks. When a task is active, it is represented by
a button in the TaskArea. The key combination to switch between active
tasks is "baseHotKey +1" to switch to the first task in the TaskArea,
"baseHotKey + 2" to switch to the second task, and so on. |
substituteHotKey |
The second option to use as the hot key when baseHotKey functions
are defined for all possible baseHotkey + n combinations. (For example,
if there are ten tasks, and since the baseHotKey + 10 is not a valid
combination, the hotkey of the tenth task could be "substituteHotKey
+1"). |
maxNumberOfTasks |
Maximum number of tasks that can be opened at a time. Once
the limit has been reached, the system will not open additional operation
panels. |

Text that is shown when the user tries to open a task and the
related class cannot be found |
warningMessageWhen MaxNumberOfTasksReached |
