Please verify if your $KDEDIR/share/apps/quanta/toolbar/quantalogo.png
shows 3.5 or 3.4. It should have a timestamp from 07-08-2005.
Also be sure that you don't have KDE 3.4 and 3.5 installed in parallel and the 3.5 version does not pick the 3.4 data/config files. In that case you may see further problems, not only in Quanta. - Dec 03 2005

1) If you are on a web page, in Konqueror choose Location->Open With Quanta Plus
2) If you are in Konqeuror file-manager mode, right click on the file and choose open with Quanta Plus.
3) If you are in Quanta in the file open dialog just type the URL (like ftp://yourserver/yourfile), what you would put in Konqueror.
4) You can pass a full URL to the "quanta" executable as well.
Bonus: even the projects can be on a remote server.
Reason for all of the above: the great KIO technology from KDE. - Dec 02 2005

If none of the above, please go to bugs.kde.org and describe your request as a wish item for Quanta. - Dec 02 2005

3..: if the result is standard compliant, complain for Konqueror on bugs.kde.org. If not, complaing for KImageMapEditor at the same place with examples. - Dec 01 2005

Depends what you mean about "a bit too eager to do its job". If you have a concrete testcase in which case Quanta behaves wrongly or stays in your way, go to bugs.kde.org and report it there (with the test document).

In this case you can be sure that Quanta will not modify the document, of course unless you use some editor dialog (table, frame, css or such) or the VPL.
My assumption is that what you see comes from the automating updating of closing/opening tags.
But what would be useful is not removing such features (considered good and useful by others), but help fixing them by providing test cases and description in a bug report filed at bugs.kde.org.

The answer to the question is: Window->MDI Mode->Tab Page Mode and arrange your views however you want.

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by meneerdik 30 comments
I appreciate your work (not only this, but also the others) and I hope you all know that this is not against this or other entry or the person who created it (Dik in this case). But there is one thing that makes me (and not only) think that there is some problem with this site. The problem is with the rating system and with categories. It's really strange that entries that are not code appear on the kde-apps.org and even stranger that an entry without code or which is basicly a set of patches reaches the top positions in the matter of days. I can understand that they are popular and they are good ideas, but they are not real applications and it just breaks the credibility of such "highest rated" list when you see that it's rated higher than big and highly appreciated applications like K3B, Krusader or Quanta. Yes, I'm biased, but I don't write this because Quanta falls down one place or two, as I know that the user base is stable and appreciates is, but because in the current case nobody can take such a list seriously. In some cases if the patches get integrated in the applications (or in the KDE base/libs), the entry will be outdated. If the ideas doesn't materialize, they get outdated. If they are and become patches or integrated in applications, they are outdated. But the rating remains and will just pollute the list. So my idea would be some kind of reforming of the top items:
- new entries get some kind of penalty regarding the rating
- old entries without downloads or new ratings will also get some penalty
- some categories should not appear there
Nobody has to follow my ideas, maybe I'm completely wrong, but whatever, I had to write down this. ;-)

Great to see Quanta toolbars appear here. We hope our online repository will be up soon, so it will be even easier to share toolbars with others. - Sep 17 2004

And just for your information, the VPL part was developed by a single person, who is still a student and doesn't have much time to work on Quanta. Neverless he did quite an impressing job. And as VPL is based on KHTML's editing possibilities (which were close to none when VPL development has started and there were cases when KHTML imposed a limitation) as soon as KHTML improves (and it improves and will improve) VPL will improve as well.
Thankfully a new developer has recently joined the project and there are good signs from the KHTML people, so the future of VPL looks good. Until that you can use Frontpage and enjoy the mess it generates.

Speed problems came from the rewritten parser which analyzed the document in detail and enables many functionality that makes Quanta Quanta, including autocompletion, tag editing, problem reporting, etc. But speed problems should be also fixed by now, at least in 99% of the cases it should be fast enough. Unfortunately while solving the speed problems some instability came in, but it slowly disappears.
So I agree that crashing while simply typing is not nice at all, but it doesn't mean that Quanta will stay in this form. I'm trying to make in very stable, especially for the 3.3 release.
Regarding the file tree: the file tree is fine for the majority of the users, but we have a wish for another type of tree. We just need someone to implement it, as it's not a top priority. Until that you can use e.g Konqueror, configure Quanta to run in unique mode and than when you click on a file on Konqueror, it will open it in the running Quanta instance. But I don't think it's useless if others are not using Quanta at your company,
Regarding the project handling: what you say is true for almost every IDE. It makes the most sense if everyone is using Quanta, but I can imagine that it would work in a mixed environment as well. - Jun 12 2004

They were up when the release was announced and are quite large ones. - May 07 2004
Well, you're right, I may put those links on the project website, but...I need more time.
