Could it be possible to send whole event object?

In previous discussion it was decided to always use KUrl (also for passing wid) but two similar signals looks cleaner probably. >> And now when we will have tool tips that could be hovered then we should >> add that glow animation for previews (as discussed). > > that's an orthogonal feature, but one i'd like to see in there > eventually, > yes. OK, so I'll try to prepare path when work on 4.4 will begin. But there is small problem, in my applet each preview has own widget (I could simply use enter and leave events), but in Plasma there is only one big widget. Is there easy and efficient way to check when mouse enter and leaves given rectangle in widget (other than calculating it with every mouse move)? There was also idea to use tool tip as window switcher for groups (good and tested already). But in case of default tool tips this would need change in limit of windows shown in tool tip (but are people really grouping more than four tasks very often?). There is also case of Composite less or with thumbnails disabled, but for them we can show vertical list of tasks (maybe this could be also used when we have more than four tasks in group). Additionally, as I said some time ago, window titles under preview would be very useful (especially when grouping by application). _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
