Summary: Alt + click on plasmoid could move locked plasmoids
Product: plasma
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
ReportedBy: mike blueroot co uk
Version: (using Devel)
Installed from: Compiled sources
OS: Linux
It would be nice if alt+click on a plasmoid would allow movement. I think it would be a very natural movement for people who are used to alt+clicking to move a normal window.
It is fairly hard to alt click a window accidentally so new users shouldn't be bothered by it.
If you have a plasmoid which resizes (like the cartoon one) then it is possible that it will be covered by another nearby plasmoid (ie the notes one). Now if you want to move the cartoon from under the note to read the great punchline then you have to return to normal mode (assuming you were in show desktop mode), right click on the desktop, unlock it, go back to showdesktop mode and then move the plasmoid, return to the desktop and relock it.
