Bug ID: 397892
Summary: System Tray widget has extremely bad usability
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.13.4
Platform: Slackware Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: britalme...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
(Note: I couldn't find a better category for this report)
I have a system tray widget in a panel by default.
I found it impossible to configure to my taste and also next to unusable.
Configuration "System Tray Settings":
- there seems to be a concept of "things in the panel" and "things in the
dropdown menu", however, in the settings this is not clear. Entries is for the
panel and "Extra Items" for the dropdown? What are the categories? Maybe you
could have a list of all possible entries and there select if, where and when
to show it.
- about 50% of the times, "Entries" in the settings is completely empty.
- If I enable something in the Extras and apply, It will not show in the
Entries until I restart the dialog.
- I have 2 different audio icons and I can not understand the difference
(except that one doesn't function).
- Wacom tablet settings is not autoloaded, it's always there.
- Instant Messaging doesn't function if it is in the extras.
- KOrganizer daemon stays around no matter if it is disabled and disabled from
start.
- I can not disable bluetooth on start.
Usability:
- when clicking on most of the icons (one of the sound icons, wireless,
battery), instead of being taken to the related options (eg. available networks
for the wireless icon) I get the same popup as if I would have clicked on the
dropdown.
- After having the popup "Status & Notifications" it is extremely hard to click
it away. For instance, clicking on the panel will not dismiss it. Clicking on
the dropdown arrow again also does not fold it back.
