Would there be any way to detect whether this is supported by an application and, if not, just operate in the old mode? Also, are these hints something that should go in the formal spec, in order to encourage apps like firefox to support it? Or would this come after it has been in use for a while to show it work? -Todd _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
