Make a plasmoid for Notification-only

by bzhb_ » Sun Nov 22, 2009 11:22 am • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

vote

Right now notifications are tied to the system tray plasmoid. But It would be nice to be able to separate the two fonctionnalities : the notification in a corner and the systray applet somewhere else.
It is two different fonctionalities, so it makes sense to make one plasmoid for each.It would be both more neat and more flexible.
It may also be usefull as it would be possible to have several systray in kde 4.4 (if I remember well).

.tar.xz in ark

by correnos » Sat Nov 21, 2009 1:30 pm • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

If you open a bzipped tarball in ark, it automatically decompresses and opens the tarball. If you open an xz'd(?) tarball, it opens it as xz compressed data, and then you have to open the tarball from inside it. I would like the ability to detect the tar data inside xz files integrated into ark.

Ability to change "Time" font size

by Il Neo » Wed Nov 18, 2009 12:50 am • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

vote

I've got very poor eyesight and need to set the font size for everything to at least 18pt.
Now in KDE 3.5 I can even change the font size for time, but not in the latest offering.

Usually the time gets partially blocked by the icons directly to the left of it.

And you can't adjust the size of the font for the time display.

KDE xmind-like projectplanner

by stigl » Sat Nov 21, 2009 9:45 am • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

Xmind is a relatively new projectmanager. It's genius is, that it easily takes you all the way from brainstorm through structuring the project so that you transparently moves from brainstorm to a managed project.

However, it occurs to me that KDE would have some strong points for an application like Xmind, since it would be possible to pull in AI into the brainstorming part - by letting the program search the internet and the harddisk for good ideas on the subject being brainstormed. This way the program could act as a sort of wizard in the brainstorming process, thus at times aiding the team.

Of course the help should be non-intrusive on the users. Rather, the program would recognise words and patterns in the "brainstorm" and offer links to ressources that could help getting extra information on the project, either during the brainstorm or following it. Links about what already exists in the area, unimplemented ideas out there, patent issues and so forth.

I am not experienced enough in KDE 4 to say if such an idea is feasible, but it seems to me that KDE would be the only project that could pull such an idea off. I believe it would leave the competition behind, if feasible.

Printer/ ink level plasmoid

by sergio.ub » Fri Nov 20, 2009 11:31 am • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

vote

Actually kde lacks a very useful program (should say a must-have). A plasmoid that illustrates the jobs queue and the ink level of a printer. Note that the one qt based program for displaying ink level is qink (qt3 based, seems dead), while libinklevel library is under active development.
so there's a need of such a tool.

Kde-tv module in systemsettings

by sergio.ub » Fri Nov 20, 2009 11:22 am • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

vote

actually the one sw that does the tuning work decently (including all linux os and not only kde) is kaffeine. some other players does a job or accept configuration files (me-tv, vlc, totem...) that are not completely interoperable.
My idea is to move the very well done tuning module of kaffeine to kde systemsettings, and consequently the channels.dvb file from .kde/share/apps/kaffeine to an appropriate place to be used and shared between all kde players like dragon, kaffeine, amarok (for dvb radios, i mean). Eventually, this file could be transformed to xml to let adding tags to channels (i.e. sports, comedy, cartoons...), adding stars/favorites and link relative infos in nepomuk framework.

Akregator manage flux

by Dimitrios » Thu Nov 19, 2009 10:14 pm • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

vote

Inside the application, in the flux options, add the option to choose the folder. If we have many folders in the flux's list, is a little difficult when we want to change the folder of a flux to drug it all over the list untill the desired folder

Redesign window managers

by Lachu » Tue Nov 10, 2009 6:13 pm • Status: Validated In Progress Pre-existing Done Won't fix Duplicate Invalid Submitted Awaiting validation

I know, that you won't realize my idea, independently you are like it or not, but maybe for KDE5?

The main problem of window managers is that, they aren't designed to interact with users. The main input focus should have application, that's right, but why any other application(window) can stolen/get focus too simple?

My idea is to make window managers more intuitive/ergonomic/sensitive. To achieve this, WMs shouldn't give focus to application without user permission, with one exception: New window is displayed/created.

Instead of giving input focus, window manager should displayed menu with options:
- Move active window here
- Bring this window to front and activate it
- Bring this window to front, activate it and click
- Drag this item(don't change active window, simulate left mouse button for moment, when user don't click and select drop item)
- Window list(section/contains submenu)
- More actions on active window(close/minimize/maximize/show at top of screen, etc.)
- Change rectangular size of active window

On window list we can bring other window to front and activate it(too simple).

Windows should have only small (4 pixels border independently it is maximized or not). Window border can't contains title/caption, buttons. Once user click on borders, we showing up menu. Active window will works as now.

Window names/caption text will been displayed, one mouse cursor will leave active window and will be hidden when mouse cursor entered into active window. This element should be displayed above the window, not at top of them.

In my opinion it's less space gainful, more intuitive, speeder. Also, it will probably works better with multitouch devices and MPX. I can chose many actions only by puts finger on the screen and select, ex. move active window here.
