Plasma Team Meeting, 5 february 2018

Present: Sho, bshah, sebas, notmart

Sho:
* [General] Fixed desktop toolbox not closing on click outside and ESC
* [FV] Much improved quality of preview thumbnails (were ugly and pixelated before)
* [FV] Worked closely with Shawn Rutledge to finally get the hover fix into Qt after some improvements to the patch: Should be in next Qt 5.9.x and 5.1.x; recommended distros patch before
* [TM] Fixed the launcher model not always rejecting duplicates properly; improved launcher model unit test to fix CI failure
* [SysSe] Looked into the color woes on the sidebar, after initial investigation handed it off to sebas and Marco
* [Other] Please review my Launch Feedback KCM port @ https://phabricator.kde.org/D8911
Diff 8911 "Port launch feedback KCM to Qt Quick and implement VDG redesign" [Needs Review] https://phabricator.kde.org/D8911

bshah:
so, I am here but I don't really have anything Plasma (Mobile) side to report other then http://blog.bshah.in/2018/02/02/trying-out-plasma-mobile-part-two/ blog post
we did slight re-work of plasma mobile website, some new pages, plasma-mobile.org/get and plasma-mobile.org/join
also whole site is now jekyll based and version controlled, which makes it easier for community to edit/add pages

notmart:
* Fixing some graphical bugs in kirigami listviews which are affecting Discover
* Fixed some other graphical issues in Kirigami/qqc2-desktop-style which made systemsettings sidebar colors behave odd
* Fixed a bug in Colors kcm that prevented any effects to be applied (including disabling the inactive selection effect) (5.12 and master)
* High dpi fixes in Konsole
* fix for a long standing plasmashell crash related to the Plotter component (system monitor, network manager etc) D10250
Diff 10250 "track the validity of the texture" [Needs Revision] https://phabricator.kde.org/D10250
* sofar this week, looking in a rather nasty security bug, more info when landed

sebas:
- Systemsettings category delegate colouring debugging with marco and Sho
- kscreen bug triaging bits
- Nothing interesting otherwise

[12:12:42] <notmart> * Fixing some graphical bugs in kirigami listviews which are affecting Discover
[12:12:43] <notmart> * Fixed some other graphical issues in Kirigami/qqc2-desktop-style which made systemsettings sidebar colors behave odd

[12:12:49] <notmart> * sofar this week, looking in a rather nasty security bug, more info when landed
[12:13:38] <sebas> Alright, thanks!
[12:14:01] <Sho_> notmart: does the konsole fix fix the cursor?
[12:14:44] <notmart> Sho_: so far i seen that it fixes some horizontal lines appearing when you select text
[12:14:59] <Sho_> oh yeah i've seen that too
[12:15:02] <notmart> the cursor still seems to have a pixel missing in the corner
[12:15:30] <notmart> and still, sometimes a line of the background isn't rendered making that piece completely transparent
[12:15:38] <notmart> those seems all separate bugs :/
[12:16:32] <notmart> thing is being heavily based on qregions everywhere (which is good, as minimizes needed rendering areas like crazy), opens the door for rounding errors everywhere :/
[12:17:42] <Sho_> aye
[12:17:46] <Sho_> thank you for looking <3
