[Solved] KMail selection box

Tue Nov 25, 2008 6:04 pm
In KDE 3.x.x we had a nice box highlighting the folder where we drop the draged email, when hovering with the cursor over the folder. I found that very useful, because I got a visual confirmation that I am dropping the email into the good folder. I have a notebook with 1280x800, but the I miss the box sometimes this way.

Is it gone by design? It would be nice to have it back.

Just my observation.

The folder view and the message view have been completely rewritten by a Google Summer of Code project. Your requested feature will be back again in KDE 4.2

It works with Skulpture - another Qt4 style, so it looks like Oxygen issue.

The problem with the folder view in KDE 4.1.3 is that it was not ported to Qt4 and still uses the old Qt3 Support classes. But the new trees and lists are based on Qt4 only.
