Re: [OT] Beautyfing KDE

Man that is a slick patch. Not only does it make KDE look great, it is also useful as far as atracting the eye to where you are working on the screen. I would love to see this added. The rounded icon selection, as stated above, might not be for everyone. I think it looks good, but I would probably preffer sharp clean corners.

As a side question, since I have not upgraded kde lately... does moving icons on the desktop still suck? I would pick up an icon, place it where I wanted it, and it would magically be placed about 10-20 pixels away. Close enough to work, but just far enough away to piss you off and make you redrag.

Maybe you have "Automatically lineup icons" activated?

Ya on my old KDE 3.2, the final resting position of the icon seems to be the *center* of the pointer. When I'm dragging it however, the pointer is closer to the top left of the icon. Seems like a centering bug.
