Dear Plasma-devs
Giulio and I are currently porting the device notifier to use qgw, the
delegate stuff was really too rigid to implement decent animations and a few
features (e.g. busy widget on top of the item being (un)mounted).
Of course we'd like to use the shiny new itemBackground; I'd like to ask you
guys what do you think about the following modifications:
1) we need to activate the items on hover, but with the itemBackground
animation delay, hoverEvent is not good anymore to track that. I can see two
solutons:
- itemBackground should send some signal when its animation finishes,
something like targetReached(qgi *) where the pointer would be null if the
target was not an item.
- itemBackground should make publicly available the animation time, so
that we can animate accordingly fadein/fadeout in each item.
2) we need a way to destroy the hover when the mouse leaves all items; i
propose this solution:
- implement a method ItemBackground::hideRequest (qgi* item) which does the
following: if (current target != item) return; else trigger a singleshot which
would in turn trigger a setTarget(0) unless setTarget is called in the meantime.
What do you think about that?
Thanks
Jacopo
