Bug ID: 424476
Summary: KDE Plasma look and design decreases by each new
released version
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.19.3
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: med.medin.2...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I love KDE and don't mean to say something bad about it, but sometimes
hard/bitter truth is better than flattering.
It's like there is no quality design in the last released versions, some random
UI solutions added with no reason at all, with a lot of popup dialogs inside
settings.
1- I will start by Application Style, you will find a grid with different
available styles, then at bottom two buttons "Configure Icons and Toolbars" and
"Configure GNOME/GTK App Style", the first button opens a popup window ! The
second button opens other kind of internal window with return header at top !
Why not create 3 tabs for Styles, Configure Icons and Toolbars and Configure
GNOME/GTK App Style ? this way it will be clean and easy to modify and
understand like what we have in Windows Decoration section with two simple
tabs.
2- The second point is font settings, why are we wasting space by creating 3
columns, and the second columns contains only two fixed item which are Fonts
and Fonts Management, why not create two tabs Called "Fonts Configuration" and
"Fonts Management" directly under "Fonts ?
With current implementation when I open Fonts>Fonts I found in total 5 columns
in front of me with so little space given to font preview at right.
3- The third point is the Icons Settings, the same can be said about the
solution of 3 columns, it is better to create two tabs called "Icons" and
"Emoticons" under one root section called "Icons & Emoticons".
And what is really disturbing is the button at bottom called "Configure Icons
Size", why are we putting a fixed list of items inside scrollbar pane and the
whole pane inside a popup window ? why not a simple combobox and a slider
beside it at the bottom ?
4- ...
The second column in Settings should be used only if at least one item from the
list has multiple tabs in the third column.
Because KDE has a lot of functions and options, some kind of of unification,
simplification and categorization should be done to improve Settings/Desktop,
because I'm should more people are embracing KDE and loving it.
