Hi Nate,

Well, I am no longer using the Oxygen Plasma theme at this point.  I have for a
few years already been using a different theme — one that works very well — and
I am indeed already on Plasma 5.27.8 at the moment, so I guess we can close
this one.

Yes, Baloo is indexing the directory, albeit that it is not indexing file
content.  I have it indexing filenames only.

If the additional information requires Baloo indexing the file content as well,
then I guess the issue can be closed. 路‍♂

(In reply to Maximilian Böhm from comment #19)

> [...] This better reproduction of Vistas Flip 3D effect [...]

To be fair, it was Vista which stole that (and other) effect(s) from Kwin and
Compiz, not the other way around. ;)

Compiz and its fork Beryl were the first window managers to implement 3D
effects ─ including the "flip switch" ─ followed by KWin in Plasma 4.  Both
were already long in active use while Vista was still in very early
development.

But then again, Microsoft has never really been original, has it?  Everything
they've released had always been bought, borrowed or stolen from elsewhere, and
Windows Vista was developed during a time that Microsoft was still led by Steve
Ballmer, who had declared war on GNU/Linux, calling it "a cancer".

"Embrace, extend, extinguish", remember? ;)

Forgive me for sounding hostile, and I fully appreciate that the effect(s)
would need to be rewritten in order to ensure compatibility with the evolution
of the Plasma desktop, but from the email exchange you've linked to here-above,
it appears to rather be a matter of not having any motivation to do so instead
of a matter of not having the manpower or the resources, as well as a matter of
not being in touch with your user base.

You are all in control of how Plasma works and how it evolves.  Therefore, you
are also in control of which aspects of the software you wish to advance to the
next level first.  

If the new "scene" ─ as you guys call it ─ requires the rewriting of those
effects, then perhaps you are pushing out this new "scene" prematurely at the
cost of breaking existing features, and ─ forgive me for saying this ─ you guys
unfortunately have a history of doing that.  Plasma 4 springs to mind, as well
as that it took you guys until 5.10 before the global menu ─ a feature that had
already more or less been present (even if only for Qt applications only at the
time) in KDE 1.x, 2.x and 3.x ─ was reintroduced, in spite of the very popular
demand throughout the entire life cycle of Plasma 4 and up until 5.10.

There's an old saying that goes "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", just as
there is another saying that goes "Whatever you're going to do, if you're going
to do it, then you should do it well."

If you break something, then you're also taking the responsibility upon you to
fix it again.  Don't hide behind the excuse of not having the resources and/or
the manpower.  Again, I've read the email exchange that you linked to, and it's
not a matter of "we don't have the resources", but of "let's just drop it,
because hardly anybody's using it anyway."  

It's not the resources that are the problem; it's the attitude.

I second all of the above.  For myself, the cube ─ actually, in my case it's
more of a carousel, given that I have 12 virtual desktops ─ is an indispensable
feature of Plasma.  Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, I also find it very
intuitive, and its removal would seriously cripple my workflow.

There are many, many people who use this feature [*], and all for the same
reason, namely that it's an intuitive way of switching between virtual
desktops, and especially so adjacent ones.


[*] I am a moderator at the Manjaro forum, so I have a very good idea how many
of
our Plasma-using members are using (and fond of) the cube effect.  I am
also a
regular in various GNU/Linux newsgroups on Usenet, and the feature is very
popular among the Plasma-using posters there as well, across many different
distributions.

I am not the original poster, but the problem has apparently returned in KMail
5.17.3.  Incoming mail is no longer automatically moved into the designated
folders, but applying the filters manually with [Ctrl+J] does still work.  This
is on a fully updated Manjaro Stable.

[juk] [Bug 436325] New: JuK icon shows up twice in System Tray and System Tray Settings

2021-04-28 Thread Aragorn
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436325

Bug ID: 436325
   Summary: JuK icon shows up twice in System Tray and System Tray
Settings
   Product: juk
   Version: 21.04.0
  Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: general
  Assignee: whee...@kde.org
  Reporter: thoron...@telenet.be
CC: mp...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
JuK icon shows up twice in System Tray and System Tray Settings.  Setting one
instance to "always hidden" in the System Tray Settings also affects the other
instance.  Yet there is only one Juk running ─ it's not a duplicate process.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Juk
2. Look at the System Tray

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be only one JuK icon in the system tray.

--- Comment #1 from Aragorn  ---
Additional observation: the spacing between the menu items in the Global Menu
is also off when compared to other Plasma themes.  The items are too close
together, and upon clicking a menu item, one can see it moving to the right by
a few pixels.

The irony of the above is that people at the Manjaro forum reported similar
spacing issues in this widget with the Breeze Plasma theme ─ and with a few
other themes ─ in Plasma 5.19.x, while I in turn did NOT have any such issues
with the Oxygen Plasma theme in 5.19.x.

Bug ID: 428756
   Summary: Menu items in Global Menu applet no longer translucent
in the Oxygen Plasma theme ─ other applets not
affected
   Product: plasmashell
   Version: 5.20.2
  Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: Global Menu
  Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
  Reporter: thoron...@telenet.be
CC: mvourla...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY

The (horizontal) menu items in the Global Menu widget are no longer transparent
in the Oxygen Plasma theme as of Plasma 5.20.  Other textual widgets however ─
e.g. the digital clock, or the window title applet ─ behave as expected.

I have tried the "Active Window Control" applet and another third-party applet
called "Window Appmenu" as alternatives, but "Active Window Control" fails to
show a global menu, and "Window Appmenu" only shows it for running applications
─ albeit with correct translucency ─ while newly started applications get their
menu inside the application window itself.  So neither of these alternatives
are viable.

The problem with the lack of transparency of the menu items only exists in the
Oxygen Plasma theme ─ it is not present in any of the other Plasma themes I
have installed ─ but the bug appeared when I updated my system on 5 November
2020, which included an update from Plasma 5.19.5 to 5.20.2.  

To the best of my knowledge, the Oxygen theme itself was not updated this time
around, albeit that the Oxygen icon theme was.
