FEATURE REQUEST FOR PLASMA 6

I use a MacOs Layout in Manjaro KDE. I don't know if latte dock will be further
developed or if it will disappear. In the case that latte dock will not return,
I propose to create a widget for introducing bouncing effects in a panel dock.
Bouncing effects is all I need, like in Elementary OS. In practice I don't use
zooming effects, only minimally. But you can also create a widget for zooming
effects for those that love zooming their icons. Also important: Radius for
rounding the corners of the dock and blur effects for the panel dock. Actually
there is no blurring in the panel dock ( I use "Apple Ventura Plasma 6")
created from a floating dock, I suppose. Perhaps you could pack them all in one
widget, naming them perhaps "Animation Effects for a Panel Dock". You can
perhaps use the code of Latte concerning bouncing, zooming, radius and blur to
build that widget. What do you think of? Preferably, which is the simplest
possibility, bring Latte Dock back to Plasma 6, if possible!

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. At the moment, the panel dock in a MacOs Global Theme is rigid, inflexible.
2. No blur effect in this dock.
3. No round corners possible. No zooming and bouncing.

OBSERVED RESULT

In all, it is rigid. That's not a real maclike dock. Moreover, it's not a dock
at all, only a
new control panel disguised as a dock, a pseudo dock, so to say.

EXPECTED RESULT

As a real dock, like in MacOs, the panel dock should be animated. The icons
must bounce, when you 
click on them, the dock must be blurred and the corners must be rounded up. And
Zooming for those, who loves this. 


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Plasma 6
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.04
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

In Gnome there is an extension called "Dash2Dock Animated", to also animate the
dash to dock. So, it is possible to create such a widget. Hope you can make it.
It would make me happy and I would more love to use Plasma 6.
