Sorry for "launcher panel".I saw wrong. When I right-click to application icon in application menu, write "add this launcher to panel" but stay wrong on my mind .I suppose "launcher panel" of panel's name.

So are you trying to create a search box in the panel using python? If so, what are you finding difficult? Have you, for instance, written a Python programme that just puts some text (or an image or something) on the panel? It'd be best to start from the basics, and then add your search boxes :)

Apologies if I've misunderstood your question, however

So you want a launcher to start your python script?

Same gnome-dictionary .When I write a word and press enter,appear a window below search box.I want make a dictionary project :)

So you want a text box applet that comunicates with your Python script?

You really need to get your terminology straight. There's no such thing as a "launcher panel". There's a panel (the entire bar that contains things) and applets (the things that the panel contains). Launcher buttons are applets. The taskbar is an applet. The applications menu is an applet.

And launcher buttons (see post #4) have nothing to do with text boxes.

Start my script but my script run always on the panel.Programming is after work.I want create only a search-box for now.I dont know that how can i make this.

Can I telling you my problem?

So you want to write your own applet?

I am completely unable to understand that sentence.

Yes.I want to write an applet.I meant "I hope that you understand me" in 2.Sentence.Sorry for my bad english.

I don't know much about writing GNOME 2 applets, maybe someone else can help, but this might be helpful:
