How is the performance impact on initial Plasma startup? I fear that this could slow down KDE startup time as the effect is done on CPU. That brings me directly to the next point: such effects should be done on the GPU with a shader either by just manipulating the image and paint the resulting image as done in your patch or by rendering complete Plasma scene with OpenGL and attaching the shader dynamically. The second one would be optimal for things like grayscale as it is basically "free" and doesn't add any overhead. And of course the effect wouldn't be limited to image/slideshow but available for all wallpaper plugins. Oh and why qimageblitz? IIRC Qt 4.6 will ship some effects (assuming that KDE 4.4 will require Qt 4.6). - Martin On 2009-09-05 22:52:05, Shafqat Bhuiyan wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
