(this message was bounced cause there was an attachment..) Hi again! :)
(i can write the above for/with you, as i'm supposedly the maintainer of > libplasma and i don't expect you to fix _everything_ in plasma as you go ;) That would be great great great! so, does the above make sense to you? basically you'd be able to take a > KPluginInfo and get out a screenshot that you can assign to the icon and > then > pass into the info widget. in fact, the model can provide access to this > for > the icon/widget. Yes, makes all the sense! If the screenshot ever exists, will be as easy as writing its name. Wonderful! for the applet browser ...... not so sure :) > > so here's my suggestion: let's use clickable Plasma::ToolTips. mouse over > the > applet and you get a tooltip. want info, click on the info button in the > tooltip. this will work _really_ nicely if the icon list is in a horizontal > or > vertical list. Is it really doable? I mean, to place a widget inside a tooltip? If so, it's a really nice way to go. About the info widget, I know that now it doesn't really make much sense, since the information to add there is few (description) and could be easily placed in a tooltip, for example. But when I did that I was thinking on that fallback list stated at the begining of the project: preview -> screenshot -> icon -> default icon. With the screenshot or even a preview the info widget would make much more sense. I attached a picture of a drawing that shows an idea I had of showing a preview of the applet. Just an idea i had... (here is the picture: http://imagebin.org/54010) But if I can do all of that on a tooltip... :)
