ATTENTION PLASMA WIDGET, THEME AND ADD-ON DEVELOPERS:
KDE loves all your stuff, but you need to port it for it to work in #Plasma6. We have created a handy, easy-to-follow guide for extensions and widgets at
https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/widget/porting_kf6/
Theme developers, please check out this:
https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/theme/theme-porting-to-plasma6/
Porting is quite straightforward and should not take you long.
Keep your users happy! Port your stuff!
@Qbitzerre@unbound.social @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social there’s probably a really big amount of architectural changes
@tauon @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social that is the excuse developers have used in the past. “Change your workflow, dummy.”
@Qbitzerre@unbound.social @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social tfw you aren’t allowed to make breaking changes ever, even if you increment your major version
🫡 Quick Tile 2 has been ported. I hope the author accepts my PR. Otherwise I guess I’ll just release it from my fork.
Good work, but why? Isnt that standard Plasma behavior? According to the repo this is just how it works on Plasma by default
How can I move a window to the upper right tile with arrow keys? How the extension works is: I hit win+right, window gets moved to the right side of the screen. I hit it win+up, it now moves to the top-right tile. I hit win+left and it extends to be tiled to the upper half of the screen. I hit win+left again, it now is tiled to the top-left tile.
That is, to the best of my knowledge, not how kwin behaves. It is, however, how Cinnamon for example behaves.
Looks good (the extension). Any other good tiling extensions with keyboard and GUI support? I would like to explore a few to see which one works well for me
You can find a lot of tiling extensions in the store. Although I don’t know how many of them were ported to KDE 6 already. I haven’t used others, since most of them are designed for a tiling-first workflow. I want mostly floating windows with just selective tiling when I need it.
At first I thought this was some kind of security issue from the picture and the tone.
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I have tried to port modern clock, but it looks like its author did not check my PR (https://github.com/Prayag2/kde_modernclock/pull/4) yet. I would publish my fork, but was not able to make an account at the kde store. Also I think my port still has some issues as it works, but is throwing errors. Sadly idk how to resolve them.
So any help with sorting out the errors or publishing it will be appreciated <3
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
The owner appeared and merged my PR, yayyyy
@kuchenmampfer @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social that’s a good feeling
Will the older unsupported widgets get hidden from the “get more…” screens? Please. I don’t want unsupported widgets and extra stuff being shown there and confusing casual users even advanced users and creating more bugs and problems than needed
