Just some simple experiment code. At first I want to make a qml/js version, but I found it's very hard to make it as same as the original version, due to the floating window support in plasma doesn't work well. So finally I start a C++ version.
But if a qml/js based on-screen keyboard is made, I think kimpanel dataengine can provides the input method side integration (Like something has been done in android on-screen keyboard. http://home.comcast.net/~jashsu/demo/gpi02.png something like this image shows. ) This is something I would like to make in the future. > > * KimpanelEngine::sourceRequestEvent needs to setData at least once .. in > fact, what i'd suggest is instead of implementing sourceRequestEvent at all, > just create the INPUTPANEL_SOURCE_NAME and STATUSBAR_SOURCE_NAME sources in > init() > > * KimpanelEngine::updateSourceEvent does not need to be implemented in the > engine > > i can make some of these kinds of clean-ups directly once it is on git.kde.org > :) and i would very much welcome you as the new maintainer for this widget! > Thank you very much :) > -- > Aaron J.
