Hi all,<br><br>I see KDE4.2 beta1 is warmly welcomed by community. I have used KDE4.2 all the time for a few months. I have to say it's getting greater and greater. Congratulations to all people here:)<br><br>I have a few ideas that I would like to have (Maybe in KDE4.3). <br>
<br>First is that applications can be minimized to applets. When applications can be minimized to system tray, we feel it's convenient because we can do something useful through the tray icon. Now we have plasma, if applications can be minimized to an applet, we will be able to do much more things on it. Isn't it great? Take amarok as an example, when it is minimized, an applet is shown on desktop, showing information of current track, and buttons of "play", "stop", "next".<br>
<br>Second is about the task manager(the task bar). When mouse hovers on a task in task bar, a window will pop up and show the thumbnail of the task's window. That's great. But we can put it further. How about letting applications to decide what to be shown on the popup window? Still take amarok as an example, we can show the applet describe above in the popup window and user can interact with it.<br>
<br>Third is about kwin. "Present windows" is the most used function for me. I want to be able to choose multiple windows in the "present windows" mode and then all the selected windows can be nicely arranged on the desktop. It will be very useful when you have to keep multiple windows side by side.<br>
<br>That's it. <br><br>Btw: tomorrow I'll fix a few bugs in Google gadgets on Plasma. Meanwhile, please try it out. We do have a few lovely gadgets for you:)<br><br>--<br>Tiger<br>
