yes, a concrete thing that i would do different.. (and i'm not advocating to change, because of the retrocompatibility and because there are plenty other areas that have more priorities to put work into) basically the bigger pain is to split the border in 8 parts and mixing vector and pixmaps in those things (since shadows must be pixmaps) often there is always a misalignment of 0.0001 pixels that creates glithces a probable nice way would be to have the border in a single element then have hint rectangles that indicates where to cut the rendered pixmap and assemble again in the final result (not sure if i explained myself correctly) but again, this is a typical case of "if only I knew better some years ago", not something worth to be changed now imo Cheers, Marco Martin _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
