Bug ID: 381295
Summary: Move Show Desktop widget to core and out of
plasma-addons, and add it to the panel by default
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.9.4
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: pointedst...@zoho.com
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
A common request (e.g. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354240
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171375) is to have the show desktop widget
in the default bottom panel layout, which will improve usability for new
users--especially Windows refugees. However, this isn't currently possible
because the Show Desktop widget is in a separate package (usually named
something like plasma-addons) that may not always be included in every distro.
I propose that the Show Desktop widget be moved out of this separate package
and into the core packages so that it is always included by default--and then
we put it in the panel by default. for new installations. This should be a
welcome change for new users, and experienced users who *don't* want it won't
get it because they'll have already customized their panel.
If people agree, I'll be happy to do the work, if I can get a little bit of
guidance and relevant documentation.
