I found there is no code to bring up a setting dialog. But in KDE4, it has one shortcut setting dialog. How did it achieve this? If I want a dialog like that, what should I do?

Plasmoid developers do not need to do anything, Plasma will provide it with a shortcut dialog automatically. It only needs to implement the adding of its own pages to that dialog.

OK~ But it seems that only "official" plasmoids have the dialog. If I makeup a plasmoid my own, install it by "plasmapkg -i ${PRONAME}.zip". It don't have that dialog...

Unusual. Which functions have you implemented in your script?

My code is:

If you wish to show your own configuration, you should override standardConfigurationDialog() instead of showConfigurationInterface().

You may wish to look at the GMail-Notifier plasmoid on KDE-Look and see how that does it.

No, actually I just want a "standard" shortcut configure dialog... So I learn to the "showdashbroad" plasmoid. Unfortunately, things seems different....

Unfortunately I do not know much about Python. I can only recommend you check some of the other Python based plasmoids on kde-look.org, or ask on the plasma-devel@kde.org mailing list.
