Is there a way to add more than one top row? Specifically, I'd like to do things like add spacers or get more control over where the buttons are placed. Is the only way to allow this level of customization through custom backgrounds?

I have a discussion with Roomie about this in another thread.

The gist of it is:

To change size and spacing, you need to modify using the DDK they provide on an OSX machine

Once it is changed, the roomie remote editor honors the settings, which are stored as xml coordinates in the plists

Also, I found out that the 'top row' can contain buttons. If you try to make too many of them, Roomie acts like a 'Row End' is there and starts placing the buttons added right under top row. Try it! Just add 7 buttons to a TOP Row item, you'll see what I am talking about.
