I think at least some of what you're asking is possible, but I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do. For example, KDE4 doesn't have a "control panel", are you talking about "system settings"? I'm sorry for my english. I am trying to move icons like the K-Menu in its bar around or the systray or clock applet or the window list. I am not able to do that. But I am able to Remove them and add them again in the correct order. With kde 3 one could move the icons by hovering them, then there appeared some bar of points left of it and you could move the icon by dragging that bar and dropping it. This was possible after unlocking the kicker bar. I do not find this function (after long search) or it is broken. Sorry if I am just too stupid (though others should also be, cause I'm experienced and still do not find it). OK, sounds like what you want simply isn't available as a feature in kde-4.0/plasma (yet). This will be addressed in kde-4.1 (I'm pretty sure). Sorry then&thanks hrm, my quick-n-dirty search of upstream bugs.kde.org doesn't find anything related to this (yet, or maybe I just didn't look hard enough). eureka: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158301 I wonder why they didn't implement this yet since it brings great usability... Patch here: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=791852 Reopening as we should consider backporting this. (That commit is from the plasma-4.0-openSUSE branch, not trunk, so it should be fairly easy to get it to apply to our 4.0.3 packages, maybe even just svn diff it and apply it.) I'm going to apply the patch and build it, let's see how it goes. Hmmmpfh, the patch doesn't apply as is, rediffing. Should be fixed in kdebase-workspace-4.0.3-17.fc9. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=573716 I just tested the above version. It works pretty well, with a few caveats: - You have to "start" and then "stop" the move, which is not intuitive (especially the "stop" feels weird) - It doesn't seem possible to move something to the far left of the panel - It's not possible to move the taskbar - While it is possible to move the system tray, it's quite hard to find the correct area to click to initiate the move (and then you need to find it again to "stop") Still, this is better than not being able to move at all... Requesting f9-final tagging. Tagged f9-final, closing. Reopening against Rawhide because the patch doesn't apply against 4.1 and this is still not implemented in 4.1, we'll want a solution to that (either upstream or a port of the patch) before upgrading F9 to 4.1. I think I have a port of the OpenSUSE patch to 4.0.83 now, I'm trying to build it now. My fix builds. Rawhide build here (needs testing!): http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=682977 Confirmed fixed by Rex Dieter. |
