Bug ID: 470886
Summary: Improvement: Make the rules window more intuitive
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.5
Platform: unspecified
OS: Unspecified
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: rules
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: amanita+kdeb...@mailbox.org
CC: isma...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Kwin rules are awesome, but often pretty hard to get done right.
1. The dialog is not very well perceivable. I would put it in the first layer
on the context menu when clicking on the window bar
So I rightclick on the windowbar, and immediately there is a button shown
2. I would remove the difference between "program" and "window type", just
"custom behavior"
So the button just says "custom window behavior"
3. When clicking on it, get the values of the screen like after the "get window
properties" feature when clicking on the screen
The already set information is often not enough, most often that you want to
differenciate between dialogs and main window. So having this is really
helpful.
4. Differenciate more between "properties already existant" and "values you
want".
At the moment it makes no real sense, you enter the values that should detect
the window, and the values you want in the same. How does it even decide if I
want a fullscreen window always on top, or an always on top window always in
fullscreen? There is a difference.
5. Make the icons bigger, the window fullsize. At the moment you need to
scroll, this is not easy design.
-------
I think the settings are awesome! But if you cant make a "simple settings"
mode, it is still important to make the settings more easy accessible.
This would help make public that Plasma simply is the best Desktop.
