I know that this is an upstream question, but let me start here. Why have http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/konsole1.png when you can have http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/konsole2.png
I like to have many sessions open in one konsole window and I also like having meaningful/useful titles for them (set via %w plus shell magic). Having a title *always* limited to 20 characters (regardless of number of tabs or tab width) really sucks. The change was trivial, in apps/konsole/src/ViewContainer.cpp first add setElideMode() to constructor of ViewContainerTabBar, so that it looks like this: ViewContainerTabBar::ViewContainerTabBar(QWidget* parent,TabbedViewContainer* container) : KTabBar(parent) , _container(container) , _dropIndicator(0) , _dropIndicatorIndex(-1) , _drawIndicatorDisabled(false) { setElideMode(Qt::ElideLeft); } And then drop the stupid limiting code: void TabbedViewContainer::updateTitle(ViewProperties* item) { // prevent tab titles from becoming overly-long as this limits the number // of tabs which can fit in the tab bar. // // if the view's title is overly long then trim it and select the // right-most 20 characters (assuming they contain the most useful // information) and insert an elide at the front const int MAX_TAB_TEXT_LENGTH = 20; QListIterator<QWidget*> iter(widgetsForItem(item)); while ( iter.hasNext() ) { const int index = _stackWidget->indexOf( iter.next() ); QString tabText = item->title(); #if 0 if (tabText.count() > MAX_TAB_TEXT_LENGTH) tabText = tabText.right(MAX_TAB_TEXT_LENGTH).prepend("..."); #endif _tabBar->setTabText( index , tabText ); } } Proper diff is coming later ;-) -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd See also http://freebsd.kde.org/ for latest information
