The last image "New Activities chooser" is broken. Thumbnail works, clicking it doesn't. Also, for a video of the alpha. I really think that it should be recorded again with - at the very least - the content of buttons aligned properly. Right now the buttons (in that video) have a weird text alignment. I know it's just alpha and probbaly fixed in the current plasme branches anyhow, but it would just give a better impression if there are no obvious visual glitches in the demonstration video. Just my 5 cents. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
