what exactly should that dataengine with nepomuk?

AFAIK there isn't any data engine using which one could make yes, you should do the dataengine first and have most f the logic there.as i said that's very likely it exists, as the "metadata" dataengine in plasma active. it visualizes the results of a query, and since the data is always extracted with a query... > nepomuk application.

What are your inputs? yes, you should do it in qml -- Marco Martin _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
