Monday meeting notes for 09/10/2023

[Nicolas Fella]

Meven:

I am written the kcm wallpaper, it is progressing, it updates the any
screen wallpaper and display the screen layout
A bunch of things are left to do, hopefully will have a draft later this
week
And I will be merging the dbus backend

redstrate:

not much, just a leftover from last week:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/1737. it's
the kaccess kcm UI refresh if anyone else can take a look at it

Xaver:

I merged the new output config system. Still have to port plasma mobile,
but other than that things are looking good
I made auto rotation adjust to the panel orientation for weird hardware:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/4477.
kbroulik it would be great if you could test that
I'll look into implementing mirroring transforms in KWin and KScreen
this week
I tried to implement ICC profile support with some cut corners:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/4471. It doesn't
seem to work though, so I'll take some time to try and do it properly

Arjen:

I've been doing some list item porting work
I also did a first MR for moving some bits of Kirigami into a submodule:
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kirigami/-/merge_requests/1319

then ran into an issue where types from that submodule wouldn't be found
if imported from another module and that module was imported with
different versions
in the end found that the declarative registration MR fixed that
oh also I have an MR up for qqc2-desktop-style to enable tooltips by
default for itemdelegates
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/qqc2-desktop-style/-/merge_requests/304

if anyone has opinions on that

Nico:

I did some API work on KService
(https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kservice/-/merge_requests/165) and
KBookmarks
(https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kbookmarks/-/merge_requests/39)
Since we want to move towards desktopfile based global shortcuts I added
infrastructure to migrate existing shortcuts:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kglobalacceld/-/merge_requests/18
I investigated why the widgets explorer filter menu has broken menu item
names
Turns out to be a very cursed Qt bug:
