Issue 125

fixes to compile krunner on windows

Set the vertical scroll mode again and again. This works around a problem in kstyle, which overwrites the scroll-mode while showing.

This makes the completion with a very long list(like in KDevelop) a few times faster.

Add a one pixel margin to the left/top of applet handles.
When the panel is locked, the "configure panel" menu entry is hidden only if it has been disabled by Kiosk.

The clock applet finally answers correctly to global palette changes.

Fix toolbar problems.
When a toolbar is moved, it is also saved.

Make the toolbar state mechanism loading/saving from Qt being by component, this will save us lots of problems that we were already having on applications that were changing the component on runtime.

Make the window.frames behavior more Mozilla-like - frames just returns the Window again, which means the properties of the window are available there, too.

This kills the FrameArray class.

Fixes #168017, and renders #164348 moot, as Window is robust against these cases while FrameArray wasn't

Make some fix writeable, to make other browsers better.
Fixes Hixie's skeleton demo and nasaimages.org

don't leak so much memory when changing between feeds.

totally unscientific measurements done with ksysguard and by swithing between all feeds (9189 total/35011 unread) and slashdot (3435/3930):
startup: 35,048K, switch to all: 44,336K, slashdot: 41,876K, all: 44,824K, slashdot: 42,696K

does still seem to leak, but nothing like it used to be (switching between all and slashdot it took approx 8MB)

QWebView wants file:// in front of local items.
This makes loading of inline images work again.

4 hours worth of airport hacking on the playlist.
Fixes many issues when dragging albums around and adds undo support to full album moves.

The undo stuff still has a logic bug that I need to solve (moving an album down can be undone, undoing a move up will cause breakage or crashes)

make last.fm events applet and engine work again.
not populating in initial add yet, but data + caching works now, after ~10 months of being broken!
~yay

Fix two bugs:
- Allow to use two mouse buttons to reveal adjasent squares
- Hide info message when starting a new game

Add this to subversion, so I can properly track the code.
This is a new plugin that utilizes the VCS interfaces to provide common functionality with a common ui.
Currently it just fetches the url and decides wether to enable vcs actions or not depending on the available vcs plugins.

There's no real functionality yet and its not compiled for now.

Finish work on the vcscommon plugin for the context menu.
All items in the VcsGroup are now added by the vcscommon plugin and no other vcs plugin should have the need to add an action to that group.

If you think you need to add to that group please talk about that on the list first.

Add the nice kio_man header and footer to the generated kio_perldoc output.

This brings up issues of its own though: instead of forking the .css file everywhere we should come up with some kind of KDE standard for generated documentation output.
But until then, this is a working solution.

Committing patch from Mederic Boquien.
Use alpha transparency in InfoBoxes instead of a bitmap pattern.
Also, use transparency to fade transient labels, instead of fading them to the background color.

We should probably use transparency to fade planet trails as well.

Thanks a lot for the patch, Mederic! Sorry for misspelling your name; my SVN
editor freaked out at non-ascii characters :(

Ui Finished (almost) started doing the Graph Implementation

- Every nice feature starts off as a hack: Fancy boundaries.

Add Save as Picture (PNG) feature to KTurtle.

It is now finally possible to properly handle custom catalogs in the Download Extra Data tool.
If any downloaded file has a filename matching *.cat, it will attempt to import it as a custom catalog.

You can try it out immediately, because I recently (finally) added Carl Knight's contribution of the Abell Planetary Nebula catalog to the download tool.

When you install the catalog using Ctrl+D, it will start displaying the PN immediately, you can search for them in the Find tool, and the catalog will appear in the Catalogs tab of the config tool.
Hooray.

Will backport to 4.1.If you're using < KDE 4.1.x (where x>0), you'll have to add the catalog manually after installing the file, using the "Load Catalog" button in the Config tool, and pointing it to $KDEHOME/share/apps/kstars/catalogname.cat.

digiKam from KDE3 branch : Important changes here :

Image Editor usability improvements: embedding editor tools in main window instead to use separate dialog.

- Add new EditorViewStack which create a stack of widget to display over editor canvas (typically the full image canvas or the editor tool preview)
- Add new EditorTool QObject component. We will use this one for each tools.
- Add new EditorToolIface which interface an EditorTool to editor gui (EditorViewStack + right SideBar).

This interface plugin or unplugin a tool to editor. When a tool is pluged in editor, a new tab is created on Right Sidebar to display tool settings. The tool preview is displayed instead editor canvas.

Some editor action still avaialble when a tool is pluged as zoom in or zoom out for ex.

There is a screenshot of new RawImport tool in action which is the first one to be ported to EditorTool:
<a href="/issues/2008-08-24/files/rawimport5-EmbeddedInEditor.png">http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/Screenshots/temp/rawimport/rawimport5-EmbeddedInEditor.png</a>;

The plan is to port all others tool used in editor, especially all image plugins.

TODO: finalize EditorToolInterafce to be able to use editor menu actions.

introduce a levels docker

allow to save the current configuration

digiKam from KDE3 : Adjust Curves usuability improvements : port first image plugin to new Editor Tool API.

The tool is now embedded in editor window.
There is no external dialog to show for this tool. Tool settings is placed on editor right sidebar and tool preview in editor canvas stack.

The look of editor sound like more professional application (as Aperture, LightZone, or LightRoom).
Look the screenshot:
<a href="/issues/2008-08-24/files/2785923199_a87e6b017d_o.png">http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3199/2785923199_a87e6b017d_o.png</a>;

* allow to load options saved in a bookmark
* set options of the levels widgets from a ProcessingOption object

Implement animation methods.

GUI support for different export codecs

Config option for selecting the wallpaper/skydome.

Own configuration dialog for cylinder and sphere effect, they do not use cube's config any longer.
Nevertheless the effects use same global shortcut as cube.

- Add a calulator written in qtscript

Added Drag support to most of the models (for items)

allow applets to query for their context, update the context via a constraint (we're running out of them!)

Add an option to embed the kdesu dialog in a given window

Very rough initial attempt at previews-in-tooltip for Konqueror and Dolphin.
Still needs extensive work in positioning, scaling/ padding items to fit, and timing things so that the previews are more likely to have been generated when the tooltip is positioned and displayed.

Resizing and moving of monitors works for predefined configurations and can be done by drag and drop with the plasma-applet.

Here is the konsole-plasmoid... "konsolator" (thanks to NotMart for the cool name..)

New D-Bus API to analyse a blob of data and store its metadata under a resource.
This is for example used to index web sites.

Status icons and status message support

kwalletkeyring: Inital Commit - Experimental bridge to find out how the KWallet data-model would fit into the Keyring data-model.

Add image wallpaper plugin converted from desktop containment.

This is the correct version of the dragger svg, WITH the icon size hint.
So extenders don't look like shit anymore.

add a KDED module for Phonon.
for now the only feature it will handle is the device management
- list all hardware and software (soundserver, special asoundrc routing) devices
- group devices access methods into device objects
- keep device list up to date when Solid tells us about added or removed devices
- provide dbus interface for the Phonon KDE platform plugin to use not enabled for compilation until it becomes useful

Add a canShutDown() method to KWorkSpace, and use it in KickOff to determine whether to show the shutdown options.

Note that we only check when KickOff is created, so changes to the session manager configuration will not take effect until logout (well, actually, you can just remove and add KickOff).

Added plasmoid UnitConverter

Add icon for places switching between desktop/laptop with solid.
Code stolen from kickoff.

Add trash limits to kio slave and provide a kcm for configuring it

Update when batteries appear and disappear.

These really could do with some love (it was one of the earliest complex engine/applet pairs, and it shows), but working on them is a pain for me, as my laptop is old and decrepit.
Any laptop-weilding volunteers?

first steps towards autohide and windows-cover-panel: basically all the hooks are in place, now the interesting and more tricky stuff happens (which is why i'm commiting now versus waiting ... ah, my kingdom for a git)

New Runner that searches in Recent Documents.

panels now hide and show successfully.
next up: actully hide() the panel widget when complete and use an input only window to trigger unhide

Keep fullscreen windows covering the whole screen when it is the topmost window on its xinerama screen.

Eject support for devices

Option for Compiz-like mouse dragging in cube effects.
That is cube is closed on release of mouse button.

Option is disabled by default.

All screen and output related signals are published over dbus now.
This makes the applet correctly redraw on changes.

Re-implement search by hiding unmatching items.
It works and it's fast as long as we don't expand parents for matching items.

Take two for mailody/kontact integration.

This is a rather large commit because I started working on these changes on the last evening at Akademy and on the train back home.

It mainly changes the plugin from a simple KABC::Resource to a KABC::ResourceABC, i.e. to a resource capable of having subresources.

This allows us to map all Akonadi collections with addressee data into one KResource plugin instance which means we can get rid of the rather awkward collection selection in the plugin's config.

Since adding KResource plugin, e.g. in KAddressBook, always shows the plugin's config page, rather than leaving it empty I decided to embed the Akonadi resource configuration KCM instead, conveniently enabling us to add/configure/remove contact data resources through KAddressBook, similar to how Mailody handles this for mail data resources.

Support inter-tab message drag and drop.

implement nearly 5-year old wish to be able to select a year rather the a month when clicking on the year label in the navigator.

implementation provides a 10 year range of years in a popup menu.

Make the vcard resource a bit more robust by adding a (configurable) autosave function.
When changes are made to the resource a timer with a configurable timeout is started and on timeout the changes are saved.

Make the config dialog for Akonadi conduits a bit more bullet proof by adding a check if Akonadi is running and try to start it if not.

When both fails, the user will not be able to configure anything.

First start of integration with Nepomuk.
Can show tags that are set.

Use the tagwidget which is shipped by nepomuk.
So we have full tagging support.

Todo: work on showing messages with a certain tag...

Add a Nepomuk Tag resource.
This shows virtual folders for each nepomuk tag.

The idea is that clicking on them shows the messages which are tagged with that keyword.

more work on images - I now have a screenshot of a simple doc, converted with koconverter, opened in OOo with the image displaying

Add a new configuration dialog for selecting slides for presentation and make it possible to use a custom slide show.

* added support for axial gradients, color stops are mirrored and used as linear gradient
* added support for gradient border attribute

Some initial work on inline editing in the playlist.
Currently requires choosing an action from the context menu.
At this point it will only edit the track name, as we don't have any way of telling what data an item actually holds.

Further editing is going to require a good deal of work on the playlist (my next goal)

Implement inline editing for tracks in the collectionbrowser.
This is still a work in progress, but less of a work in progress than it is in the playlist.

TODO: Inline editing for artists/albums/everything else.

Thanks to a very small amount of Solid the screen dosn`t go to sleep while watching a video anymore :-)
(I really love KDE4!)

Perspectives can be enabled and disabled.
Still TODO to make the perspectives plugin system complete: store the enabled state of the perspectives in the settings and restore settings.

Add ability to play a track directly off of MTP device, initial support.
It lags because copying isn't threaded etc., but it should work.

Revamped webinterfaces
- icons are updated to the new ktorrent icons
- default interface now looks like new KT website

krdc: NX resume sessions support

- Add beginnings of download order script so the user can determine the download order of files
- Make sure that the downloadorder script gets installed
- Add desktop file describing the script
- Use desktop file to load meta information about scripts
- Add properties dialog for script to show meta information about script

Improve scaling behavior (VNC):
* new option to keep aspect ratio
* fix issues in fullscreen mode so that window has not been centered after switching scalling on and off again

Patch by Guillaume Pothier.

Extend the auto connect at startup option to a global initial account status setting.
Patch by Cyrill Helg, thanks!

Battery Level detection is now working and configurable

New profile system, needs testing

scriptable gui plugins :)

add system-config-printer-kde

add a new rss reader script plugin

New theme

First of all, my SVN account is enabled again.
But now comes the even more important message: Jigsaw patterns are there!

All the work has finally paid off.

Add a curved theme.

New skin editor for KsirK; just an empty window right now

More Puzzle like patterns.
Can't test them unfortunately.

Stephan, could you please let me know if they even work?

Adding sounds to the game with Phonon... Latency problems, maybe use several MediaObject?

Implement support for the new background.

Progress in skin editor: GUI design quite complete; fake sprites positionning

Use Kopete's extended dbus interface (no more polling)
Add an event cell notifying about upcoming birthdays and unread instant messages

Having received no feedback on k-c-d when I announced this patch, I'll go ahead and commit it.

Improved "smart" placement of text labels for plotted points that have been named.
The previous method used a low-resolution "gridding" of the plot region into a 100x100 array (regardless of the plot widget's size) to serve as a mask to identify regions which already contain a plot element.
Now we use an actual image for the mask, matched to the size of the widget.

In addition, we use a "downhill simplex" algorithm to search for an optimal label position near the target point such that the label doesn't overlap with other plot elements.
Before we used a brute-force search.

With the new method, the Solar System tool in KStars takes 85-95 msec to draw itself (compared to 250 ms with the old code, and 75-85 msec with no point labels).

Fixes: slowness on embedded devices.

Details: On embedded devices like n810 (which uses an Arm processor) usage of double is incredably expensive. In almost all cases our usage of double can be done just as well using floats on those devices.
This is something that Qt does as well using the type 'qreal' which is a double on all modern platforms but float on those that don't have doublenatively.

So we get the best of both worlds by replacing double with qreal.

AStyle plugin ported to kdevelop 4

All features of the previous version are here (except the 'format files' item in the Tools menu which is not really be necessary)
It now uses astyle v1.22.
I have redone completely the config dialog (with a live preview usingKTextEditor).

Initial import of Jim Bublitz's Twine tool.

Twine is used for generating and updating Python bindings from C++ headers.
It is used maintaining the Python bindings in kdebindings.

sync with git master: add Lua

libkdcraw from KDE3 branch:
New integer and double input widget based on KDE components which provide a default value and a reset button, like we can found in pro-photograph programs like Aperture or Nikon Nx

New combo box widget based on KDE component which provide a default item and a reset button.
Adapt dcraw settings widget with these new objects.

Andi,
We need to use these widget into digiKam, especially into all image plugins.
I will use it in RAW import tool.
Just look my code to see how to use it.

Refactoring/cleaning code to insert new features to version 2.0.

In the pager applet, a shadow is drawn when the mouse enters a pager button, unless in elegant mode.
Pager buttons do not flicker anymore.

Split up the updateBackgroundPixmap() method so that what is being done is easier to understand.
Also update the background as soon as a paint event is received so that a "transparent" icon is shown sooner.
Latter updates have been extended from 50ms to 500ms.

Update the background regardless of whether it has changed or not as the icons weren't correct after the dashboard had shown.

Documentation on the system tray protocol support framework :)

be careful with relative paths and symlinks in packages and themes; we don't want widgets referencing random files/resources, just stuff in the given package

copy fish to playground to port it to windows/plink

Adding test if cylinder and sphere effects are supported by the hardware, so that they can't be activated if not supported.

make suspend/hibernate show and work

initial draft + stub class of the Context (aka Activity) class for Nepomuk integration and the exporting of workspace Contexts to the rest of the desktop as per disucssions at Akademy.

Remove smooth scrolling from kstyle for now.
I have to talk with icefox to see what we can do, but for now, this is the best thing we can do

This gives free theming since we "cross use" the notes.svgz now.
We need the notes applet to be installed though. TODO fix by cmake switch to install notes.svgz if it is not already installed (this might be ugly since this is needed for notes as well) or distribute our own copy again which removes "free themeing".

The theme authors could distribute a copy of notes.svgz as leavenote.svgz anyway...

when we get a non-file dropped, check to see if any applets support any of the mimetypes in the drop.
if so, create a tempfile with the data in it and start the applet with that data.

it's pretty ... interesting to drop web content from a webbrowser onto the desktop and get a miniwebrowser showing the results.

allow notes to be created when text is dropped. yay =)

Created QEdje's plasmoid.

You'll need to specify an edje file and an edje group to be loaded.

In order to build the plasmoid, please install QEdje 0.2 and also QZion 0.2 (this will require EET too).

I recommend downloading the KDE logo animation from:
<a href="http://labs.morpheuz.eng.br/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/kdelogo.edj">http://labs.morpheuz.eng.br/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/kdelogo.edj</a>;

Move KDE-integration-only stuff to an own library (kdewebkit).
That separates WebKit KPart and KDE integration work in a better way.

Port Mailody from KHTMLPart to Webkit.

Still todo:
- block external references ( Urs? )
- fix scrollBy shortcut ( Qt4.5 )

Add a nice (but not too much evident) animation to the folder tab while it's loading.
Kool but not annoying.

Add tutorial based on the Inkscape Calligraphy Tutorial.

Port KSpread's eigen1-based code to eigen2.
(That is just the matrix math functions: MINVERSE,...)

Unit-tests pass, but I can't find a way in the GUIto use the matrix-returning functions such as MINVERSE.
Strange.

Also, in the documentation, no function is described as returning a matrix.
I mean that in functions/math.xml, e.g. for MINVERSE, we have <Type range="true">Float</Type> but still in the GUI Help MINVERSE is described as returning a single floating-point.

Another minor complaint: MUNIT is very poorly named, it is not called the "unity matrix" but rather the "identity matrix", so I would suggest the name MIDENTITY.

Not sure though if I am allowed to make that kind of change, perhaps that is an ODF standard or something, I don't know.

* port eigen1-based Krita plugins to eigen2 (almost no change was needed)
* so KOffice does no longer depend at all on eigen1
* Add FindEigen2.cmake to cmake/modules/
* In CMakeLists: disable Eigen asserts unless we're in debug or debugfull mode.

Make the perspective transformations use eigen2 instead of old cut-and-pasted code.
Removes 450 LOC.

Use a 9x9 fixed-size matrix, instead of 10x10 dynamic-size (I don't understand why it was 10x10, perhaps I'm missing something).

Rework the API a bit, so functions which returned a pointer to dynamically allocated memory now return a fixed-size Eigen matrix. This fixes a few memleaks as these pointers were not always deleted.

Warning! The unit-test is empty, and I since I don't know how that feature is supposed to behave, I can't be sure that I didn't break it.
Please test!

Eigen2 now mandatory for building Krita. ${SARDONIC_LAUGHTER}

As discussed during Akademy on amarok's den phonon meeting, xine backend is going to phonon trunk, and kdebase will be free of xine dependencies.

xine backend will be disabled until all changes are done.

Tag amarok 1.90.

Ugly, pathetic, foul smelling and generally not pretty, hackish workaround for the alternating row color issue.

This looks sane on the default Oxygen color theme but less so on other color themes.
We _really_ need a proper fix for this one before 2.0.0 final

- Qtfied phonon-xine. Some translations are lost during conversion, but will be restored in near future.

phonon-xine now is a qt plugin, as well phonon-gstreamer and other phonon backends.
The move still need more tests.

Max sez, Ian and my speculation in IRC today was right, and urls should never be lost from the urls table even if tracks are removed from the collection.

As a result you should never need uniqueid fields in statistics and lyrics tables.
So remove them.

Note that they are still needed in playlist_tracks as it stores paths, not integer references to the urls table.

enable the generator for Qt 4.4.0
It actually compiles fine on 4.4.0.

Maybe my version is patched or something, let me know if it doesn't work.
Then we can bump Amarok to Qt 4.4.1. :)

This fixes the issue I was having yesterday of Amarok mysteriously not building the script generator, even though I had Qt 4.4.1.

new icon and button layout as discussed @akademy w/ leinir and team.
now only 1 button click is needed to zoom, or 2 to add or remove an applet

remove toolbox completely.
all in one commit so it can easily be reverted if we wish to put it back later

* Import of Guidedog, a (currently) Linux based tool for easily setting up "connection sharing", basic routing and network address translation (NAT).
* Port to KDE 4 and Python.

Remove the code to recreate hidden-to-tray state across application restarts.
It was broken after the shutdown procedures were moved to a point in time after after the main window is hidden to cover quit-by-DCOP, and Konversation 1.1 features an explicit hidden startup option that fulfills user demands more accurately anyhow.

This fixes a bug that made Konversation always hide to tray on startup regardless of the aforementioned option when the system tray icon was enabled.

Import the KDE asciiquarium screensaver into the playground.
Differs from last tarball release into that seaweed is cleared off when they die instead of waiting for a passing fish, and the seaweed are not allowed to spawn on top of an existing seaweed to make it look nice.

KDE 4 FAQ file updates:
* Help with performance problems in the form of the new nVidia 177.67 beta graphics drivers.
* QT_USE_NATIVE_WINDOWS workaround for the Qt 4.4 scroll corruption issue in the Konsole terminal widget.

Another KDE 4 FAQ file update:
* Add a note about the new background tinting option to the question about skin translucency appearance.

packagekit rewrite, processQueue works

first check-in for 7zip plugin.

Initial import of the KGLEngine2d refactoring.
This version has little to do with the ktank beta 0.2 version.

It is aimed to be more easily usable and will be used by KTank and Katerpillar.

Resize jigsaw-puzzle shape SVGs to include very big plugs completely.
(Even if that sounds a bit X-rated, I cannot find a better description.)

Added new default theme for KBounce, theme is beach style, sun and sea.

tagging KDE 3.5.10
