            Bug ID: 377652
           Summary: Some Kicker icons should be highlighted while hovering
                    cursor over them (like in Kickoff)
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.9.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Application Menu (Kicker)
          Assignee: h...@kde.org
          Reporter: fince...@hotmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

Not tehcnically a bug but more like strong wish:

Kicker main icon (panel icon) should be hightlighted while hovering cursor over
it. Additionally, I noticed that icons in the favorites list also miss
hightlighting. This is not the case in Kickoff launcher.

Highlighting relevant icons improves the overall feeling of responsiveness of
the system. Right now, the whole Kicker Application Menu (& especially the
mentioned icons) feels just discrete & clumsy and somehow unfinished, not so
responsive. Though *technically*, every feature works as intended.

If this highlighting feature is discussed and rejected before, at least make it
an option in the Kicker launcher configuration menu ("Application Menu
Settings") so everyone can individually decide whether to enable the
highlighting or not.

I remember that lack of highlighting was already an issue in Plasma 4, and was
the only reason I've never really used (Homerun) Kicker as my app launcher.
However, I really love its simplicity and prefer the layout over the default
Kickoff launcher.
