Re: On the current state of Konqueror

Konqueror has "panning", Shift+(UpArrow|DownArrow), at least in 3.4. It also has mouse gestures vie KHotkeys, and it works great and you can configure it as you like.

It also has sessions, called "View Profiles".

Konqueror has sommth scrolling (like firefox), just use the Suse RPMs
(or integrate Suse's patch into SVN)

But no panning on third mouse button which triggers the notorious x clipboard.

ok the Profiles seemed more like (and probably are) for setting the layout, but perhaps could be fleshed out, with the history of the saved sites. Wasn't that obvious under the settings tab. (usability to the rescue).

The stuff noted under "problems" remains.
Especially Konqueror loading an image in a Gwenview kpart should be emphasized.
This might be handy on a local filesystem, but it's just unusable on a website.
I'd just need about four basic operations on rightclick (save image..., copy image, copy image url, image properties)
and all four are gone because the picture is embedded in the viewing part of an application. Instead I can rotate it now in the browser.. *sigh*
Don't know anymore how it was handled before I installed Gwenview.

    I think it's indeed Gwenview that decides what options are shown there.

    If you don't want Gwenview to be used for embedded viewing you can tweak that in the control center under KDE Components -> File Associations (for each image type in question): Just change the "Service Preference Order" on the "Embedding tab" of each image type. The entry on top is used.

    That way you can keep Gwenview installed and still use something else inside Konqueror.

    Konqueror does have panning on the third mouse button.

    Settings
    > Configure Konqueror
    > Web Behavior
    > Mouse Behavior
    > Middle Click Opens URL in Selection

    That's enabled by default, but if you turn it off, it does scrolling just as in Firefox, IE and, I assume, Opera.
