so lattedock upon startup may go read that file (is already possible for any app to access that package via standard KPackage api and reading the current lnf from kdeglobals, adding a new named file just makes it a bit more official)</p></div>

<p>nice! I can play with it with some guidance to test it in order to support it both for 0.7 and master Latte versions if this is possible.<br />
the layout file is just a text file that ends with <strong>.layout.latte</strong> .<br />
Inside it looks like just like a plasma's appletsrc file with some extra configgroups that Latte needs.<br />
The name of the file is also used as a layout name, e.g. <strong>Plasma.layout.latte</strong> means a Latte layout named <strong>Plasma</strong> .</p>
<p>If you want to take a look of one layout file a small example is: <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/F5543871" style="background-color: #e7e7e7;
border-color: #e7e7e7;
border-radius: 3px;
padding: 0 4px;
font-weight: bold;
color: black;text-decoration: none;" rel="noreferrer">F5543871: Plasma.layout.latte</a></p>
<p>Theoretically it should be also possible to download/install from store.kde.org any applets that can be found inside the <strong>layout.latte</strong> file<br />
and cant be found in the user's environment.<br />
Just like plasma is doing, I think.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R119 Plasma Desktop</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D9288" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/D9288</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>mart, Plasma<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>ngraham, mvourlakos, apol, plasma-devel, ZrenBot, progwolff, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, mart<br /></div>
