one more thing, you can draw text directly in the canvas with few lines of code, look at this: https://ibb.co/JC4WmpF - Aug 28 2020

Plasma 5 Clocks by aeregeneratel38 12 comments

Nice clock!
Just a tip: avoid using a timer to update the canvas, you can just set a property such:

readonly property date currentDateTime: timeSource.data.Local ? timeSource.data.Local.DateTime : new Date()

and then:

onCurrentDateTimeChanged:
{
canvas.requestPaint()
}

You don't even need timeChanged(), using the above property you can show the time like this:

Label {
text: currentDateTime.getHours() + ":" + ('0'+ currentDateTime.getMinutes()).slice(-2);
....


It would be nice with a transparent background and customizable font (e.g: set outline and so on).

Plasma 5 Windows Blur

Various Plasma Theming by TheXellix 51 comments

You are welcome, and so are the credits ;)

I am experiencing another issue with windows having strange characters on the name.
For instance, sublimetext with unsaved documents has a title such as:

Untitled • - Sublime Text (UNREGISTERED)

That dot 'breaks' the name string. It would be nice to find all these corner-cases :D - May 23 2019
Plasma 5 Windows Blur

Various Plasma Theming by TheXellix 51 comments

I found out that using the window id retrieved through xdotool is better, and it seems to make errors disappear.
Furthermore, it is working with chrome as well.


while true; do
sleep 0.5
a=$(xprop -id $(xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | cut -d ' ' -f 5) WM_NAME | sed -e 's/.*"\(.*\)".*/\1/')

# can have more ids for the same window name!
ids=$(xdotool search -name "$a")
id_arr=($(echo $ids | tr " " "\n"))

for id in "${id_arr[@]}"
do
xprop -id "$id" -f _KDE_NET_WM_BLUR_BEHIND_REGION 32c -set _KDE_NET_WM_BLUR_BEHIND_REGION 0
done

set -u
done

Plasma 5 Windows Blur

Various Plasma Theming by TheXellix 51 comments

Thank you!
It works fine with standard kde windows (dolphin ,settings, etc) but I see an error with chrome (and, consequently, chrome is not being blurred):

xprop: error: No window with name Plasma 5 Windows Blur - KDE Store - Google Chrome exists!

This is due to the window name which changes according to the current tab:

WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Plasma 5 Windows Blur - KDE Store - Google Chrome"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Plasma 5 Windows Blur - KDE Store - Google Chrome"

Bu maybe WM_CLASS should be used?

WM_CLASS(STRING) = "google-chrome", "Google-chrome"

Thanks for your feedback!
2 seconds were suggested just for testing. It is actually one hour.
I've already tried the time dataengine but I could not find the currentDateTimeChanged signal: I believe that just newData is available and I should do the "date check" manually.
I could anyway use the current timer and correct just the first cycle.

Hints are welcome!

Plasma 5 Calendars by Refused 26 comments

Yes it does: the day is checked one every hour.

You can try it by yourself (don't forget to revert the canges, rebuild and reinstall):

- edit src/yearprogressplasmoid.cpp replacing 60000 with 2000 at row 47, so it will be updated every two seconds,

- make && sudo make install && plasmoidviewer -a org.kde.yearprogressplasmoid.

- change the system date by some weeks ahead and you will see the percentage changing.

oxygen-transparent

QtCurve by HugoPereira 546 comments

ok I've installed the last svn.

The screensaver works correctly (at least the one I'm using [Flux GL]).

I've discovered that on kopete the down area is blurred when I write something in the conversation (or if I do something like /clear), so may that just be a redraw problem?

On chrome I've observed that when I move the window (dragging from the titlebar), it moves not so fluently. Since the window isn't based on QT, I think that may be a gtk related problem. How can I blacklist google chrome? With both 'google-chrome' and '/usr/bin/google-chrome' don't work - Jul 27 2010

QtCurve by HugoPereira 546 comments

chrome has the default configuration, the wobbly effect doesn't work if I drag the window from the title bar, but both maximization and wobbly do work if I drag the window from anywhere else (Alt + mouse)

on kopete I've observed that the problem happens randomly :|

I'll try out the last svn asap and I'll let you know

thanks - Jul 27 2010

1) the screensaver starts in window-mode instead of fullscreen

2) google chrome has a tricky behavior, it seems to have not title bar (e.g. if I drag the window to the top border of the desktop, the window does not get maximized) - Jul 26 2010

I think if a window is reduced, the "peek" functionality should be deactivated for that window.
Another thing, it should be possible to set a color to the active task. (I've seen this on win7) - Nov 15 2009

Smooth Tasks

Plasma 4 Extensions by panzi 840 comments

It could be nice if the tooltip layout may be vertical even though the tasks panel is horizontal (and vice-versa).

I think it could be useful the possibility to choose the preview sliding speed/acceleration.

Finally, it may be nice the possibility to set the hovered tooltip's border color equal to the hovered task light color.

Keep up the good work, this is the best plasmoid ever! ;) - Oct 20 2009
