Re: When I'll Make the Switch
by Iuri Fiedoruk on Sunday 17/Feb/2008, @14:37

My wish list:

- global key shortcuts for apps (opening dolphin with win+e) in kmenuedit
- fix double-click for desktop icons
- port quanta+ (I am a web developer after all)
- quick launch plasmoid
- way to move plasmoids of place in the panel
- add more alternative plasmoids into KDE like Network Graph and Coremoid
- better app launcher menu (the suse one.. I don't like)

Actually a very short list. I could add some improvements in oxygen, but this will soon be fixed in kde-look by people porting their styles and windows decorations soon ;)

- global key shortcuts - no kiddin', this has been in KDE since at least 5 years?!? There seem to be some bugs in there, but those should/could be reported at bugs.kde.org
- the plasma stuff - yeah, probably all planned but not done yet ;-)
- quanta needs more developers...

I've read quite some time ago (at least a year or so) that the KDE4 version of Quanta will be based on KDevelop. If that's still true, that means no Quanta before KDevelop 4.0

Yes, it is planned for KDE 4.1.
Too bad because it's one of the best tools (the same goes for kdevelop) that exitsts for KDE.

- fix double-click for desktop icons

already fixed. it works just fine here, so either you're waiting on an updated set of packages or.. i dunno. but this works.

- quick launch plasmoid

alt-f2 isn't quick enough? ;) i know what you mean though and there is already a wishlist for it on bugs.k.o. i'm sure it'll end up in at some point.

- way to move plasmoids of place in the panel

already there, just trickier for the user than it needs to be (will be improved)

- add more alternative plasmoids into KDE like Network Graph and Coremoid

talk to their authors to talk to us to get them moved into svn.

- better app launcher menu (the suse one.. I don't like)

there's the traditional menu one if you prefer that.
