So now we need someone to implement one of these ideas to test how usable they are (I've exams now)... >> >> 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). >> > >> > .. in this case the tooltips should be "normal" and not clickable. >> >> And what with idea of using tool tips instead of group menu? > > do you mean for things like the context menu (to desktop, minize, etc)? > that > could be added... i don't think we need to make the tasks widget not > show the > group menu on click when there is composite, though. I'm thinking about showing clickable tool tip when thumbnails are available and something similar to widget with list of tasks (I don't know how it looks now in 4.3...) but handled automatically by tool tips, to not duplicate detection of availibility to show thumbnails and widget implementation. Or maybe move that widget to kind of "utils" (also widget for showing job progress could be moved there and maybe other small thinks that could be reused in other applets). _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
