Blue Sora

Plasma Themes by Deathmachine 77 comments

Blue Sora seemed to be the answer to my question of what theme should I use, but I stumbled upon an issue: Blue Sora and the non-fullscreen Homerun launcher do not get along. Is that fixable? - Jun 12 2014

KFaenza icon patch

Icon Sub-Sets by AndrejSoroj 11 comments

It's the KTelepathy system, and when I started a conversation I saw a black-over-black, 16x16 icon.

BTW, the Chakra artwork guy, Malcer, fixed that in the latest Dharma release, but I'd like to see a fix for everyone. - May 13 2013

usu-places

Plasma 4 Extensions by lokster 8 comments

If I try this in Chakra Linux, I get a beautiful menu, with black text over a black background...

Can that be fixed? - Apr 17 2013

KFaenza icon patch

Icon Sub-Sets by AndrejSoroj 11 comments

Congratulations for patching KFaenza. You have ended with one of its most significant annoyances: the Dolphin panel inconsistency.

BTW, can you fix the issue between KFaenza and Telepathy? When I open a conversation window, the icon I see is black, and it looks awful. It's a low res 16x16 icon, scaled, while this conversation window deserves an app icon on its own. Can you lead the way? Thanks in advance. - Feb 28 2013

Smooth Tasks 2

Plasma 4 Extensions by henry4 71 comments

This is the real answer to the famous taskbar bug in KDE. Until a real fix is released, Smooth Tasks is a must, so thank you! - Jan 20 2013

¿Qué es esto? ¿"Preparando Triunfadores para el Camino"?, ¿"Formación de valores para la familia"? Este es un sitio de SOFTWARE LIBRE, no de religión evangélica. Sé muy bien quiénes son, son un grupo colombiano ligado a las iglesias evangélicas y se instalan aquí para promover temas religiosos que POCO Y NADA tienen que ver con KDE. Su única conexión con el software libre es tener una cuenta de Launchpad (que dicho sea de paso, no es libre).

What's really great about this theme is not the "blue icons", but the additions to Oxygen. The Kontact icons are fixed, the new Kate icon is great... Congratulations. - Apr 23 2012

Skanlite

Graphic Apps by sars 49 comments

With Skanlite 0.8 and Qt 4.8, I can't select anything and I'm forced to scan full pages. Can you reproduce that? I'm on Chakra. - Mar 19 2012

Kotonaru

Plasma Themes by mcder 20 comments

Ojalá tengas razón... En todo caso, buen tema, aunque no estoy usando este. Estoy usando tu trabajo para Chakra, que es espléndido. - Mar 09 2012

Porque vas a tener problemas con Sunrise, así como con cualquier tenedor de derechos de la metaserie Gundam en Estados Unidos. No quiero que un tema tan bueno sea bajado por un asunto tan menor. - Mar 09 2012

The only problem is: if Sunrise catches you, it's the end. Change the name! - Mar 09 2012

Generic Animations (BeGeneric ;-)

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by thomas12777 117 comments

I don't want to use any other effect, because your BeGeneric library:

- Has acceleration, so, it can emulate the soft, slick closing effects of Aero (one of the few things I really like about Windows)
- Runs at full speed always. KWin native effects always look jerky if I compare them with BeGeneric.

So, if you are going to replace all effects with this for KDE 4.9, I congratulate you and thank you. But... can something be made? :) - Mar 02 2012

Generic Animations (BeGeneric ;-)

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by thomas12777 117 comments

Thanks for all your hard work in Bespin, and now, in this.

Any ETA about proper minimizing and virtual desktop switching support? Will the required KWin pieces fall into place for KDE 4.9? - Mar 01 2012

Yet Another Window Control

Plasma 4 Extensions by csslayer 59 comments

The best place to have this GUI option, IMNSHO, is not KWin; it's the yaWC Settings pane. So, can you implement it? - Feb 25 2012

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

You'll understand instantly when you look at this.

http://ompldr.org/vYzh6MQ

For some strange coincidence, the non-Bespin color, in the Oxygen Cold scheme, looks like the Chrome window color. My wish is: why don't we take this to the next level and make window border color a custom rule for windows? Chrome with a chrome-blue border, Opera with a red border, and so on.

BTW, Qupzilla takes this to the next-next level and forces Bespin to paint the Qupzilla theme into the titlebar. Great! - Jan 13 2012

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Reproduced.

This deserves more research on my part; I'm using KDE 4.8 RC1, and there may be a major bug in Ark that's causing this, since I've used Ark to create this compressed file. - Dec 31 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Now it's fixed. The revised version is 11.5 seconds long, instead of 12 or 15. - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

You might be having bugs with your tar.xz libraries, but that doesn't matter anymore; I switched to the old but reliable tar.gz format. - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

The new version shouldn't be longer.

I'll fix that. Thanks! - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

I'm a bit confused with "the shorter" vs "the longer" version. Can you elaborate a bit on that? Is /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Sys-Log-In-Short.ogg the long version? Is it the short one? Is it something else?

This sound is designed with the Oxygen theme in mind, and to replace the Oxygen start up sound (and other sounds) with something better, but compatible and in the idea of the current theme. There are lots of better concepts than Oxygen for start up sounds, but they are not compatible with Oxygen (for instance, the KDE 3.5 start up sound, I really love that one) - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Sure. http://www.chirbit.com/ is a great tool for something like this. - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Yes, I'm trying to update the startup sound. I *NEED* some feedback to improve this, since I want this sound to be better than what we have. - Dec 30 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Updated! Test the new "asterisks"; I need help finding a place for them and fine tuning them. - Dec 29 2011

yaWP (Yet Another Weather Plasmoid)

Plasma 4 Extensions by PlasmaFactory 1198 comments

Yes, this behaviour is with yaWP 0.4.1 compiled against KDE 4.8 RC 1 and Qt 4.8. It may be a Qt 4.8-related bug, however. - Dec 29 2011

Oxygen 2

System Sounds by AlejandroNova 19 comments

Done! - Dec 28 2011

yaWP (Yet Another Weather Plasmoid)

Plasma 4 Extensions by PlasmaFactory 1198 comments

If I click on yaWP, in KDE 4.8 RC1, I don't get any panel. Instead, I get a plasma-desktop process running at 100% CPU. Can you try this?

I am running with Qt 4.8, in case it helps. - Dec 28 2011

Hostinfo

Plasma 4 Extensions by mgraesslin 1 comment

1. Please, make it resizable.
2. If you can turn off the Plasma background when you display the info, it would be great... - Dec 22 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

I want to congratulate you by your new header code. It looks great, awesome, and it helps usability. However, there is one (just one) place where it fails miserably.

1. Open any KDE app.
2. Select Help | About KDE with the very latest SVN code.

You'll watch a super-wide dialog, with this as the header, in extra-large text.

<html>KDE - Be Free! Platform Version 4.7.90 (4.8 Beta2 (4.7.90) optimized by the Chakra-Project</html> - Dec 16 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

Immensely better. You killed about 5px of dead margins. - Dec 15 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

Triaging myself: this anomalous behaviour disappeared when I disabled the workaround "QDockWidgets: lock positions". Maybe a special case for Calligra should be introduced. - Dec 15 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

The second bug report in a row. Please, watch the difference between these 3 screenshots.

Screenshot 1. Calligra Words started with Bespin.
http://ompldr.org/vYnIzOA

Screenshot 2. Calligra Words started with Oxygen.
http://ompldr.org/vYnIzOQ

Screenshot 3. Calligra Words started with Oxygen, after I switched back to Bespin in the corresponding KCM.
http://ompldr.org/vYnIzYg

Please, can you make Screenshot 1 look like Screenshot 3? The absence of UI text is really confusing me when I try to use Calligra Words. - Dec 15 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

Indeed! 1430 seems to have fixed this!

Thanks, Thomas! - Dec 15 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

http://ompldr.org/vYnF6Mg

There's my Bespin setup.

This isn't working. If I click on the link generated with that command, the notification closes and nothing happens. I should be in KDE.org homepage, but I'm nowhere.

Can you check if this is because I'm running with a 125dpi monitor? Has that something to do with this? - Dec 15 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

http://ompldr.org/vYnF5bg

There you have it. As you can see, this screenie is taken with Oxygen (with Bespin, margins are a bit wider, and I have less real estate with the Microblog plasmoid). - Dec 14 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

The text of the tweet list is not designed to allow further interaction, so, I can't select text there, since the Microblog plasmoid is designed that way. If I click and drag over the TL, I scroll (literally dragging the tweet list)

However, with Oxygen, if someone publishes a link in a tweet, I can click over it and the link will open in my default browser. That click doesn't work with Bespin.

The issue is further complicated, since, as Aaron Seigo wrote, when you hover over a link in Oxygen, the cursor won't change into a hand, but the click itself will work. If you try with Bespin, neither the hand or the click works. - Dec 14 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

Uh, I omitted the most important thing...

3. All my tests are being done with the very latest Bespin code (svn up from today). - Dec 14 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

1. The problem has nothing to do with the "input zone", the area I use to tweet. It's the tweet list, and I can't select text from there.

2. Thanks for the info :) - Dec 14 2011

Bespin

Be-Shell/Bespin by thomas12777 1663 comments

I filed this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288890 . Aaron Seigo couldn't reproduce this bug, since he wasn't using Bespin. The bug reproduction instructions are as follows.

1. Enable the Microblog widget, with Oxygen. You will be able to click on links, with the caveats described in the bug.
2. Enable Bespin, restart Plasma. You'll lose the ability to click on links.

Aaron Seigo mentioned something about Qt issues with proxy widgets. Perhaps the hacks you're doing there are breaking the Microblog plasmoid. - Dec 14 2011

Icon Tasks

Plasma 4 Extensions by CraigD 642 comments

I LOVED your app. I was an avid user of Smooth Tasks, until I discovered Icon Tasks. But, as great as your app is, here is my wish list.

1. The thing I loved the most about your app is an apparently stupid, but great, thing: the double-barred separator. I have missed that since KDE 3.5.x. Please, can you make a Separator plasmoid? (a double bar that I can insert in a panel, does nothing, and the only thing I can configure it for is the space on both sides of the bars, perfect for sorting some wacky designs).

2. I'll join to the request of small numbers in the task bar visually grouping tasks into virtual desktops. If you mix that with the Activity Switch plasmoid, you have a great combo. I also remember with love that little feature of the Kicker taskbar. - Oct 25 2011

Win95Classic

Plasma Color Schemes by shartmann 7 comments

I still remember when I had the choice, in KDE 1.x, to put a gradient in my titlebar just like Windows 98. You brought me memories! - Oct 13 2011

Eleonora

Plasma Themes by pmarki 28 comments

I became a fan of Eleonora instantly, when I saw it running smoothly with Chakra. However, the Calendar handle totally screws up the whole Calendar. Can you fix it? - Sep 11 2011

KFaenza

Full Icon Themes by snakebite 156 comments

Yes, but it does not have anything to do with Faenza. What about this mockup?

Columns:
|||

Split: A hollow and outlined box with a filled box, forming a square shape. Into the filled box, a hollow plus sign.

- Aug 29 2011

Faenk Start Buttons

Icon Sub-Sets by acidrums4 9 comments

That's just amazing!

I'll keep an eye into your icon theme, but you'll need to track Faenza to give us a beautiful fallback while you redo those icons. Oxygen as fallback won't look good. - Aug 29 2011

Faenk Start Buttons

Icon Sub-Sets by acidrums4 9 comments

There is already KFaenza. Perhaps you should join that project and supplement it with your KDE-specific Faenza icons. - Aug 28 2011

KFaenza

Full Icon Themes by snakebite 156 comments

Please, can you change the category of this post, from "KDE Icons" to "KDE Icon Theme"? If you do that, KFaenza will appear in GHNS. I can't see it in my GHNS radar, so, please, do it! - Aug 28 2011

Monochrome Tray Icons

Icon Sub-Sets by n00bw00t 43 comments

KDE PIM 4.6 is released, and 4.7 is coming. Also, the G-Remix author has already made a coherent Akregator icon, so, you can use that as a model.

Waiting for KDE PIM 4.6 and 4.7 icons ;). - Jul 19 2011

Oxygen KDE (Firefox Theme)

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by jimmy88 1783 comments

1. Pin a page as an Application tab.
2. Open enough tabs to make scroll buttons appear in the tab bar.

You'll lose your Application tabs. They return when you close enough tabs to make those scroll buttons disappear. - Jul 05 2011

Crystal

Various KDE 1.-4. Styles by dralgebra 153 comments

You brought me back those memories of KDE 3.5.8 running under Gentoo, in 2004! The Crystal style is as solid and configurable as before. The only real change is the switch from fake transparency to true Composite transparency, and it looks awesome.

From a long time Crystal user, in the KDE 3 era. - Jun 05 2011
