- No transition Definitively, but another patch (we'll have to wire up a showingDesktop signal and then script something nicely ;-) - Cannot access plasmoid or containment config windows We'll have to require them to either be transient for the desktop or set the keepAbove flag (and interpret that in layers.cpp) to still keep "normal" docks (panels) hidden - KRunner exits this mode Afaics that's a general (re-occurring ;-) "problem" w/ krunner, unrelated to this patch. Non-dock type windows that are not in the desktop group break the mode. This applies because krunner is another process than plasmashell (afair the KDE3 runner was part of kdesktop) => KRunner must either become a dock-type (and keepabove or transient) or move itself into the desktops window group (be transient for it or have the same WM_CLIENT_LEADER) However, I put "problem" in quotation marks, because that rather seems the minimize-all (aka. "you wanted to switch the VD" ;-) case of cleaning up the workspace (for the very next action will break the mode anyway when you run a new application)?? - Panels inaccessible See above - we can either make dock-type windows (mostly panels) unconditionally visible or require them to setup a special condition (transient for desktop or keep above) The question on what to do here is also the question mostly asked by this RR =) The global behavior (as long as we don't require transiency/keepabove hints from "some" panels) is very easy to adjust, though. @Usability team, please also see my very first comment for more information on layer control. - Thomas ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
