Bug ID: 391275
Summary: Kicker backend feature: combined
"history/favorites/newly installed" view
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Menu (Kicker)
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@kde.org
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
I pitched this idea to Eike privately and got a positive reception, so I
figured I'd file a formal feature request.
For the upcoming Kicker backend rewrite project, I'd like to propose a dynamic
view that can show favorites, recently used apps and documents, and also
newly-installed apps.
It would be primarily a history/recently used view, with the additional feature
that Favorited items would always show up at the top of the list, perhaps with
a little pin or star badge in the corner.
In addition, every newly-installed app (or at least, those installed using
Discover) would also show up in this view, so users can easily find them (which
is a big discoverability problem right now). New Apps would likewise receive a
badge, or perhaps a different background color--something to distinguish them
as newly installed for the first few times they're launched
The idea here is to create a user-friendly view that can show your average user
everything they really need 99% of the time:
- Their favorite apps
- The apps and documents they've used recently
- Newly-installed apps
