so ,as a conclusion, I want to try to do a very bare bone recap: * there seems to be too many icons in the popup, especially some that don't really do much * completely hiding icons of statusnotifiers of applications gives problems, because makes those applications unreachable for all intents and purposes * however should be pretty safe to hide plasmoids: with a possible state more, things like the device notifier can be completely hidden when empty * an extra state for statusnotifiers may cause problems for unity and the two gtk clients. * completely hide vs an extra layer of show/collapse what's better? * As a first action item, completely hide really empty plasmoids (it would be up to the plasmoid logic to decide that with setting the proper state on itself) * Still open problem: less crowded popup, but still being able to access applications that are accessible only by their systray icon -- Marco Martin _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
