Status

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for Plasma.


Repository: plasma-workspace


Description
-------

This patch paints previews of copied images, instead of displaying the urls in plain text.

The display is limited to 4 images right now. The painting of the delegates is in line with the recommendations from the HIG at https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Layout/Image

It has a few rough edges (all fixed now):
- not all images get thumbnails -- need to investigate why
- vertical alignment throughout the list is quite bad, this is the case already, I will fix that separately
- I want to add an indicator that it's more than 4 files (if applicable), working on that still
- When no preview is loaded, it should show an icon, almost done, with some fixes

I'd like some feedback on the code, so that with the remaining issues fixed, it can get in.

Testing
-------

Copied images and files in Dolphin, see them showing up in Klipper. Made sure that the previews are only loaded when needed, so no additional memory taken when the systray / klipper popup is not open.
