Hello everyone,
do you know if it is possible to add a different panel implementation in
plasma and provide me with some guidelines for this?
The use case is the Now Dock for which I want to provide a unified
settings experience, (plasma settings and now docks settings)
isn't NowDock its own custompanel already?
no it isnt...
Do you know a way to create my own panelview for plasmashell? (this is
what I mean by custompanel)
Current Implementation:
in metadata.desktop it is set:
X-Plasma-ContainmentType=Panel //not CustomPanel
NowDock uses qml in order to provide a different layout than the default
one but the configuration settings from plasma are still there
Future Implementation:
either a way will be found for the above to be implemented or I will
have to implement my own corona and panel containments in a different
executable than plasmashell. This solution has its benefits and its cons
also...
