Good point, I wasn't aware of that API. That would only work from my perspective if there was a cross-platform specification for that, which would also be adopted by e.g. LibreOffice or VLC, because we can't assume people to only use Frameworks-based applications in Plasma. Would it be realistic to try to push such a specification? I mean, it _would_ make sense for all desktops... _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
