Re: Re: Re: [RFC] Remove Xinerama related options
Anyway, no need to say that if there is new feature to play fullscreen movies on several monitors, user should have the choice to enable or disable this feature (I don't think all xinerama users want to watch their movie across all their monitors ;-)) yes the script would have to be installed manually. But that's the general idea behind the scripting. Allowing users to do much much more with the window manager than what has been possible before. Just for the record: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/104014/ The script will be installed, the user just has to enable it. I think this is a quite nice solution to such problems.

So basically i guess this option is dead (unless it's read somewhere

unspectacular in this regard)
lxr will help for that :-)
a) cool - wasn't aware that there's lxr.kde.org (just typed that into the
browser just after reading ;-)
b) how? - afaik lxr only handles definitions, not use random strings in
some function and while 'Unmanaged' leads to the kwin Unmanged and some
other, 'Unmanaged' leads nowhere -
find -name *.cpp -exec grep -H 'Unmanaged' '{}' \;
in kde-workspace finds the xinerama kcm and - likely unrelated ;-) -

Re: Re: Re: [RFC] Remove Xinerama related options
While we're talking about confusing options in System Settings, I've always wondered why there are two Xinerama options in Window Behavior (Focus tab) - Separate screen focus and Active screen follows mouse. In particular, how does the latter work together with Show unmanaged windows on? Thought it could be worth taking into consideration when cleaning up the multiple monitor options.

It's the KGlobalSettings::splashScreenDesktopGeometry() in kdeglobals.cpp what sounds like legacy code(*) since nowadays splashscreens tend to be _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH, are managed and placed by kwin as placeOnMainWindow() what in doubt means center of the main windows screen - no idea whether KDE splashscreens actually perform a geometry request, but that sounds pointless to me and is probably left over from pre-netwm times?! *shrug* Cheers, Thomas (*) professional and non offending way to say bit rot or cruft ;-) ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
