Hi, Developing Grouping Desktop & c. (http://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/GroupingDesktop) i came across a limitation as regards the form factors. There's a group i developed, FlowGroup, that behaves like a panel: it places all the widgets in a row and tipically it has a little height. like the systray does with its contents. Now, the problem is that if i place this group on a desktop and then i put a PopupApplet in it, this will explode because the applet reads the Planar form factor from the containment and will want to stay expanded, event if it doesn't fit into the group's size. Can we implement a solution for this? I was thinking we may add a "formFactor" property to Containment and make Applet::formFactor() look for the property on its ancestors. This way we could remove the hack to make the applets in the systray work too. A setProperty("formFactor", Horizontal) in the systray would be sufficient.
What do you think? Greets, Giulio _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
