It is the same problem like with wallpaper-per-desktop. Both could be implemented by having Plasma provide one window per desktop, and additionally the taskbar would have to specially handle the case when its visible but not on the active desktop. It's a question if it's worth the effort. > The attached patch hides this issue by simply fading out the panel when the > desktopgrid is activated and fades it back in when the you zoom into a > desktop. > > OK to commit? We talked shortly about it on IRC and we don't like it. Other effects like the cube would have to be modified too and having the panel hidden would look worse than just having it slightly incorrect. DesktopGrid is still only an effect and not the real desktop (e.g. clicking doesn't work normally either), so we consider to be better this way. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lu...@suse.cz , l.lu...@kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 972 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
